Now, i realize we have freedom of press and all that jazz, but if you release an incrminating story like that, aren't you supposed to at least be able to back that story up with some hard evidence? They DO realise that releasing blatant lies like that could have lead to even more violence, don't they? It's almost like they were actually HOPING that there were muslims involved.

That is what we have been attuned for, standard US media protocol! Get the story out, fix what is incorrect later (if at all), just be the first to get it on the AIR!
