Widely reported that the "chairs" in the boat were NOT attached to the

NTSB investigator inturrupted the guy taking Matt Lauer's place (And doing
a vey good job of it, if you catch my drift...) and told him the seats
were in fact bolted to the boat and that the reporting of them not being
attached was false!

Just another day in the accurate reporting of the news!

Our local paper reported 21 drowned, while the graphic right next to the
story said 20 drowned. Since I have more time to listen to the news, I hear
a lot of stuff that is not true and a lot of hearsay (especially in the New
Orleans reporting). Sometimes you will see a jet on tv with the sounds of a
propeller driven plane and vice-versa.

Made up news -- oh boy!

No matter what happens someone will find a way to take it too seriously.

To say nothing of the FACT that the accident actually took place in upstate
New York on lake George, not on the Hudson.
