(Update Per Fox News 11 of 13 Miners Dead at 3:00AM EST 1/4/06 One Miner in critical condition)
*******
Fox News - 12 found alive!
Ah yes, Sylvia Brown. How will she explain this one?
"Miscommunication ... don't know whose end it was ... incomplete evaluation went to the command center."
Stray cell phone conversations
Ask Newt Gingrich about that
Around 1:00AM EST I woke up to a nightmare of a coroner looking for a pair of dead twin brothers, went to my PC and dialed up FR, of course, to the premature good news. Went back to bed, still had CNN on when a lady and her kids came running out of the church to Anderson Cooper with the bad news.
Hmmmm... a reporter? A reporter wanting to break the news first?
I agree but is she any bigger phoney than the folks who were claiming God had answered their pleas?
What a shame, the families were so happy, they lose their family member twice
"Why didn't we hear the information was wrong sooner?" [media speaking! how ironic!]
"Miscommunication or misunderstanding?"
They failed big time no fact chking no confrimation nada
>>cell phone communications picked up by 'someone' who relayed bad information.<<
Some newsie idiot with a scanner jumped the gun, obviously. I hope they find out exactly who the jerk was, along with the person who took it on himself to announce the "good news" to the families. The media types are into full-blown "blame the company" mode at this point.
Did you hear George spreading the story that the MSM claims that this was not just a miscommunication, but that they were LIED to.
Yeah. What'd you expect from a phoney. But then, what did you expect from Coast to Coast?
What a sad story. From the euphoria of their rescue, to the news that only 1 survied. Someone is going to pay for this.
The families had the same information, otherwise they would not have stayed in that church for over 3 hours. The governor had to know what those families were told, it's been on all the news, the company officials had to know too, why did they let this lie go on for so many hours?
Were I one of the miner's family members, I'd be out of my mind.
I'd say about even.
Sylvia does this crap for a living though.
Sylvia Brown is a phony. She is on with Montel every Wednesday. My mother is convinced that she is real. After watching the show twice I am convinced she is a phony and that Montel knows it.
My heart goes out to the families of this unbelievable nightmare. This is the 24 hour media at its worst
Sorry about the misunderstanding.
As it have been reported, the families also got the same information. Unless they got the news from the pathetic MSM, to give the MSM some credit, they weren't the only one that got this information.
