I think we have to take ALL "news" stories with a grain of salt. These stories are compiled and arranged by producers who are human. Humans make mistakes and humans carry motives that are not checked at the door when they entered a profession. Other than internet news, I get my news almost exclusively from NPR. As good as NPR is, and I do support my local station, NPR demonstrates biases and makes mistakes too. That's the nature of the game.
