You expect reporters to be bright enough to understand the difference between complex geometrical concepts like distance and area? How silly of you!!

>How far is 10 acres?

Acres are a measure of area not distance so it depends upon the shape of the plot of land. A square containing 40 acres is 1/4 mile (1320 feet or 440 yards) on a side. Forty acres therefore contains 1320² square feet so a ten acre square is (1320²/4)^.5 or 660 feet if you walked down the edge of the square, 933.38 feet if you walked the diagonal, corner to corner.
