We are all too aware of how much the mainstream media will think nothing of putting a story up on the internet, television, or the papers w/o following thru on the facts.
All for the sake of being the 1st to break a story ?
When I saw this thread yesterday, I admit I was annoyed "media-member" type behavior had spread to this forum as well. I could be wrong but that's how I interpretted it. Maybe it's nothing new, because I'm not here as often as most of us, but I haven't picked up on it until now. Yeah it's unfortunate I don't know anyone here. But the idea I put my first response to the thread as an attempt to show how clever I am, I promise would sound absurd to anyone who knows me at all.
I will address Thoroughbred Fan immediately.

Fair enough.. I understood the zeal of the thread start to bring a hot story forward, but the first response to it, within minutes, was a correction that the rumor was in fact false. It's not as if a debate raged for a day over idle speculation or mistaken innuendo.
I probably over-reacted to your jibe at TBFan too, but I do my best to minimize and eliminate posts and exchanges that I think people would prefer to take back or are in the process of creating conflagrations.
No harm done all around...
