Hurry!

Years ago, no “legitimate" newspaper or television network published any story without fact checking.  The standard was to have two verifiable sources before publishing/airing a story. 

In addition to the fact that many reporters now put their own ‘spin’ on a story…ignoring the who, what, when, where, why standards, in order to 'beat' the competition, they obviously are not fact checking either…at least this news station didn’t!  And this is mainstream media!!!! *snort*


This is exactly why you don't listen to HALF of what our news media puts out! These names were read ON AIR of the supposed pilots of the crashed jetliner in SF by a San Francisco news station! The names obviously weren't confirmed by the news station. Oops!

  5. You are so right. I pay attention to only half of what I hear and then sift some more. There is very little common sense exhibited in the news media when a "hot" story comes their way.

  7. People care more about ratings than what is correct.
