Associated Press ran a story about the new information released in the Newtown shooting, which everyone agrees was a tragedy.
Here is a snippet from the original AP story.....
A loaded 12-gauge shotgun was found in the Honda Civic Lanza drove to the school with two magazines containing 70 rounds of Winchester 12-gauge shotgun rounds.
Here is how the Fox News folks decided to rewrite this part
A loaded 12-gauge shotgun was found in the glove compartment of the Honda Civic Lanza drove to the school with two magazines containing 70 rounds of Winchester 12-gauge shotgun rounds.
Those Fox News folks must be driving a different Honda than we do!:)

Welcome to Kahrtalk Texas Tom...I agree 100% with you about the media telling many Whoppers that day...They got more wrong information than right and were real quick to broadcast anything that sounded good....The media has changed into a cut throat business these days and there are no more professional journalists and it's more important to get a story out FIRST and let accuracy be damned...
I think Sandy Hook was a prime example of news that was buried and unreported to make the story into what the media wanted it to look and sound like rather than pure simple journalism getting the story right and out to inform the public...
The media wanted to turn this tragic story of a mad man committing multiple murders on helpless children into a poster child story for Gun Control....
There was so much information left out or under reported that it made much of what was said unbelievable and distorted....I want to hear from the two teachers that were wounded and taken to the hospital with non life threatning injuries...What became of them and why were there no follow up stories about what they saw that day???...We may never know....

And you never will know. They were probably executed so they wouldn't tell the truth and mess up the script. The coroner obviously forgot his lines, the neighbor taking in children forgot he was even in the show.
The parent / actors prepping for interviews. There's some clues here that I don't think you need to be a profiler to figure out.
Media should not be allowed at crime scenes until the yellow tape comes down far as I'm concerned.

I want to see the 12 ga shotgun that is loaded with 35 shotgun shells. It must be a gattling gun or a tommy gun.
