This is such dishonest "Journalism!" 1st, there are no "Grizzlies" in Yosemite National Park! They are found in, probably, no more than three of the lower 48 states. California ain't one of them. The point is, that this fact should have been apparent to anyone with the mental capacity of Joe Biden. Further, what does "Veteran" status have to do with the thrust of this article? Lastly, if this guy had been mauled by a momma Grizzly defending her cub, he likely wouldn't be around to tell of it!

Too much woke politics in journalism schools. Not enough about research and getting the news right.

Shayne Patrick Burke, a veteran who has survived deployments in Iraq and even a brain tumor, has been through a lot but earlier this month, he was on his honeymoon with his wife, Chloe Burke, at Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming when he encountered a new kind of danger — a grizzly bear weighing about 400 pounds and with four-inch sharp claws.

Fake Story- there aren’t nearly enough “Allegedly’s” for the story to be real

Grand Teton in WY is not in Yo-see-mite.

Business Insider steals original article and runs it through an AI rewrite to avoid plagiarism accusations and AI doesn’t know enough yet so changes park name?

I just sent this email to Inside Edition:

How shameful, sloppy and lazy can you people be? Contrast your story here:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/army-vet-survives-attack-bear-130052124.html

With this ABC NEWS story here:
https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/News/35-year-speaks-after-grizzly-bear-attack-insane/story?id=110672557

You people are just shameless and disgraceful! What more can be said of you?

a grizzly bear weighing about 400 pounds and with four-inch sharp claws.

I doubt that those claws are really four inches long! Looked more like 3 and 7/8 inches, to me!

I demand accurate reporting, and insist that the journalist take a ruler and go measure them, just to be sure!
