ups driver, I don’t think you need to explain the painfully obvious.
If I posted “I’m thinking for my honeymoon the wife and I want to swim with great white sharks dressed in seal outfits, what do you guys think?”, would a serious response be needed?
Was it painfully obvious? I don’t think so. What is obvious to some is oblivious to others.
In this case, the fact that a CBS local affiliate reported the story may lead some to believe that it is reported on CBS nationwide. Also, most people don’t pick up on the subtleties of bias reporting.
