Two teenage reporters land the scoop of a lifetime

When the Washington Post published an article back in May about President Donald Trump, they failed to notice that one of the photos included a sticky note with the personal phone number of the US Secretary of Defence. But two high school students, Teddy Fischer and Jane Gormley, noticed. They called, left a voicemail, and sent a text to Jim “Mad Dog’’ Mattis’’ and he eventually agreed to an interview.
