Times Insider explains who we are and what we do, and delivers behind-the-scenes insights into how our journalism comes together.

Three young girls — ages 6, 7 and 9 — were killed and 10 others, including children, were wounded. The next day, Megan Specia, a New York Times reporter who covers Britain and Ireland, traveled from London to Southport, where she found a community in mourning. In reality, the suspect was a 17-year-old who was born in Cardiff, Wales.
