Are their deadlines measured in hours or minutes like pressroom
reporters
are?


I've often wondered why getting the story first trumped getting the story
right.

Form over substance?

Early bird gets the worm?

Firstest with the mostest?

(I wonder what gatt will have to say about my use of clichés.)

If it isn't accurate, it's not NEWS...it's barely EDITORIAL.

(At least they didn't blow up the plane to make a headline, like one network
did with pickup trucks)
