Saddly you can only really trust the basics involved.
I can trust myself on this one, I work with reporters who reported this, am a reporter, and live in the area where this happened.


If you’ll notice my reply in that thread, when you have a staff writer covering human interest, there are many small facts that go by the wayside.

The equivalent to using that blurb to equate it to all press being mistaken more than not, would be the same as me assuming all dentists are butchers who get high on laughing gas because of what I’ve seen on Little Shop of Horrors.
