Russ,
I complained to the local newspaper about what I thought were grievous
errors of fact. I was told that they accurately report was said, but
make no attempt to ascertain whether the information was accurate. So if
they interview someone who is not an expert or experienced with the question
subject matter, they will accurately report what was said.

FYI I got sufficiently ticked off at the newspaper report of the
recent fatal crash that I sent this to the newspaper Editor.
May do some good, may not.
Editor, Post and Courier:
That writeup by "Bo Peterson " about the fatal crash of a homebuilt
aircraft (NB: IT WAS NOT AN 'ULTRALIGHT') was a very poor piece of
reporting.
Your paper, and Mr Peterson, should hang your heads in shame.
ACCURATE REPORTING IS NOT DIFFICULT!
But you must resist the temptation to be dramatic and sensational,
and at least try to be accurate.
One disgusted pilot.
