What We Can Learn From CNN’s Erroneous Reporting on Coast Guard Drill

[bert]

what can be learned?

CNN was caught up in a scoop. Getting there first and loudest counts coup. Journalists don’t kill each other.....counting coup is the cultural war practice

Failure will be forgotten

Then there is the matter of who actually saw it? More are learning from the Fox reportage than actually saw it.
