The Media = Don't They beat all !!


The other day I posted in the General Section, a report from the A.B.C. news room,

It covered a story about a Wrecking Yard Fire in Perth, in that report, they said 40 cars were destroyed by the fire,

On channel 9 News last night they said 200 cars were damaged, now on turning on the radio his morning, Curtin Radio have declared  that 250 cars have been done in,

I am not inclined  to believe any of that mob, looking at the Video taken from a News helicopter , I would say, one would be lucky if there were even 40 cars burnt.

If the news services keep reporting this in ever increasing numbers, we could save a fortune in Road tax, as there won't be any cars left on the roads confuseconfuseconfuse

21 years in "the service" myself, history has taught me the media never let the truth ruin a good story.
