I have said many times "that the media is the base of a lot of problems , as they are great at distorting actual facts " , and as you have said , to sensationalize the news.Quote:

Again is it the news media distorting facts ?
Over the years , I have been involved with the news media and their reporting , Give them a statement and when you see it in the newspaper , you wonder where that came from , as it is not what you have originally said to that reporter.
They take what you have said, distort it , take statements out of context , print them, to sway people in believing things "their way" . When they are done it makes you wonder why you have even spoken with them .
Haha, very true. I recall seeing the story about the strangling as well.Quote:

My guess is the crossbow wasn't even used. Likely stabbed them with a bolt. Very easy to differentiate between a stab and a shot. But like already said a "crossbow" is sexier.
