How Screwed Up Is The Media?

[Nulle]

Rocky: I have delt with a couple of the ones you mentioned on a short term one incident deal and I hope this is not taken out of context as I am not defending them just trying to understand "why" it was done.
Are they just that uncaring and nobody to hold them accountable.
I have gone through extensive media training and one thing is you don't get in a pissing match with them because you will lose.
In the last year they are really on a frenzy it seems like and we got blasted big time when I was with FEMA and now they are after the Red Cross also.
In the mine case was there not a media person in charge of the press release stuff? You have to give them something to report or they will make it up. I still think somebody gave them that false information but as time goes on I can see we will never know.
