CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC do have people they can call and the internet
and they still get it wrong. It is sad.


Too true, unfortunately. It's sad that the pressure has always generally
been to beat the competitor to the press, not to be more accurate than the
competitor even if the story comes out a couple of hours later.

Accident reports. The relative unreliability of piston engines in
aircraft contributes to the overall lower safety of small GA aircraft;
indeed, were it not for extremely reliable jet engines, commercial
aviation wouldn't be where it is today.
