Objectively, they didn't do good journalism and cite primary sources.
Primary sources were the interview with Yasmin Porat on Haboker Hazeh (which was censored by Israel) and the interview conducted with IDF helicopter pilots on, I think, Haaretz. Everything else is commentary on the same evidence.
The fact that the Tampa Bay Times failed to cite those two primary sources really calls into question their legitimacy as an institution for journalism. It's basic journalistic etiquette to cite primary sources where possible.
