I'm watching it on TV and writing what they report Momodamonkey

Rewrote because all was false[edit]

Either the report was what it was at the time, or the information in the article was 100% untrue and unfounded. Even the CNN source was not matching up in the title. Nearly everything was totally untrue and wrong. This needs to be looked at very carefully as for one, why did no one catch it even though several Admins were editing on it?

Check the sources. Click them. Seriously, this was published like that for quite a while...and yet no one at all seemed to bother reading the source (even thought there was only one source). DragonFire1024 05:38, 12 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I was in a rush, a read that the circumstances were unclear... but I agree, we might be doing poor in fact-checking, I often just improve the layout of an article, making it even more easily overlooked.--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 11:07, 12 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
