Accuracy in reporting

[Utah Bob #35998]

I saw this article on MSN this morning. Flagstaff is actually a wee bit closer to Colorado City than 1,000 miles! I have been to both.

Even Colorado City TX is not 1000 miles away.

 

Maybe they took a right at Albuquerque.

I doubt it is even 100 miles away so you can omit a typo as the cause!

Reporter is likely a product of the california public school system.

Closer to 250 miles if I remember right, but never let a fact get in the way of sounding worse than it is.

Oxymorons are usually used by every day common morons.

Remember the diver who drowned in Blue Hole in NM?

The National news reported he died in the ocean , in NM!

We need the old time newsmen back!

Accuracy in Reporting, these days, is an oxymoron.

ill agree that our "reporting" these days is flawed , i never believe what i read till i verify and even then take it with a grain of salt , 

 

these girls didnt just walk there tho , the big question that the 'reporter' failed to ask is who transported them and how did they get their hands on them ? there are crimes involved here , serious crimes , transporting across state lines ? the child safety about where they were ? if they were adults id not think so much of it but children ? something is seriously wrong here

My thoughts as well. Were they taken against their will, coerced into returning, or did they return on their own?

more investigation to report the story well was needed

Probably went back of their own free will on their.  They are indoctrinated from birth that the leader of the FLDS (Which, BTW, has NO contact with the LDS church) has the ear of God and is infallible.
