I see. so the purpose of the news media is to only tell us good 
news? (grin), really, we have just had an example of the poor 
coverage, people saying they had gotten an incorrect picture of 
what is happeneing RE: the cat situation, no information RE: the 
flooding I mentiond (which was bad enought to flood several 
bussiness), why bother having news (or rather, "speculation" as I 
have taken to refering to it of late.) at all? if we can't trust it to 
provide us with timly and accurate information, is it not doing us all a 
disservice? if we make decisions based on inacurate "news", well, 
how can we make an informed decision on things?
