Meet the Press teased 'new details' about 3rd person in Pelosi home, new details didn't follow

Yesterday the media, including Politico and Washington Post, reported that there was a third person in the Pelosi home who let police into the house after Paul Pelosi called 9-1-1:

David DePape forced his way into the home through a back entrance, Scott said. Officers arrived at the house, knocked on the front door and were let inside by an unknown person. They discovered DePape and Pelosi struggling for a hammer, and after they instructed them to drop the weapon, Scott said, DePape took the hammer and “violently attacked” Pelosi.

That should be kind of a big focus for the media, right? On “Meet the Press” Sunday morning, it was discussed, but only briefly. However, the “new details” ended being left at the old details.

Bizarre moment on Meet the Press this morning. @chucktodd says @Tom_Winter has “new details” about the “third person” who let the police in before the attack. Winter just reiterates what police said Friday about 3rd person and pivots to attacker’s social post. 90 seconds in here: https://t.co/Hp1kkR5ePM
