ccm Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Just looking at their news feeds and reporting on the Volante case MR says he was guilty on FIVE counts while the papers say he was guilty on FOUR counts ........ someone's made a mistake .......not very good really is it ........and these are trained journalists ....or am I missing something?

Nitro Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I'd say IOMonline is right as it has more details on the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccm Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 How could they get something like that so wrong ..... as for 'he's guilty, what does it matter', well if the media (in this case MR) can't get their facts right .....it makes you wonder if you're being told the correct facts ..... very,very sloppy journalism but maybe what we should come to expect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Ayres Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I think most people here take all reporters with a pinch of salt, isn't that the normal thing to do? They only spout what they are given, RIRO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
