“did a piece for @realmoney.com on boeing, to appear shortly..”
Jim Cramer, on X 23 December 2019 Post by @jimcramer on X, 2019-12-23 (X)
Jim Cramer wrote a piece on Boeing for RealMoney, due to be published shortly after 2019-12-23.
Unresolvable The public record could not settle it.
Said for an organisation they lead or work for; it counts on both records.
What would count as true or false
True: an article on Boeing by Jim Cramer was published on RealMoney (TheStreet's subscription service) within about three days of 2019-12-23. Mostly true: such an article appeared within two weeks of 2019-12-23. Mostly false: a Cramer piece mainly on another topic mentions Boeing only in passing in that window, or a Cramer Boeing piece appeared on RealMoney only more than two weeks later. False: RealMoney's archive of Cramer's articles for late December 2019 to early January 2020 shows no Boeing piece by him.

“"Someone had to pay the price and it has to be him," Cramer said, adding he thought Calhoun, a former General Electric executive, is a strong replacement for Muilenburg.”
Reasoning
The evidence shows Cramer talking about Boeing on Mad Money on 12/20/19 (E1, E2) and on CNBC on 12/23/19 (E4, E5), and E3 confirms that RealMoney carries his content. None of these items records a Boeing article by Cramer published on RealMoney in late December 2019 or early January 2020. None shows that RealMoney's archive lacks such a piece either. The evidence does not settle the claim either way.
