Lying?
It psuedes them ....
Notice that it always takes the “mainstream” media about 24 hours to “get their stories straight” .. and after 24 to 30 hours, EVERY mainstream media reporter and print writer at UPI and AP starts using the same language and the same tone. That is because it takes 16-18 hours to get the talking points memo researched in focus and their political groups, get it written, and get it distributed.
the first few hours of a story are often most telling - because that happens BEFORE the news is controlled.
Errors?
Yes, absolutely there are also errors early on.
It is most evident after a traumatic event, when they are racing each other to get the story out. A for you.
I wonder if anyone has done a study on how closely magic thinking is connected to Pseudology ... as in the democrat voter vermin have their magic thinking priocked by the practiced liar-in-chief!
