Media..No.... REPORTERS
Fabs,
I dealt with reporters many times in the past while working in the Fire Dept. To let you know... The media doesn't care how they get the story...as long as they get it first. Reporters are the ones that do the crazy and stupid things. They intrude into peoples lives with no regard for the people's feelings or loved ones. I have absolutely no use for most of the reporters I have met in the past. There were a couple of good ones who actually reported what you said..but they were few and far between. Ask Rocky. He dealt with them on a daily basis at one time I'm sure. We had an aircraft(737) fire one night and a reporter for one of the Baltimore TV stations broke through security and got in my face while trying to control an aircraft incident. I happened to be in charge. I actually had him arrested for getting onto the airport without going through the correct procedure. Think the guy still hates me. He cussed me till a fly wouldn't light on me. I can tell you that. The average reporter is a whore for a story...even if it ain't so!! Just my opinion. The people who reported this story wrong should be fired at the very least.
