I When someone knows details of something, and thus is biased as to how to interpret a situation, there will be discrepancies. People lie to the press. Things can be hard to understand. The reporter was rushed and didn't ask all the questions needed to be asked. The interview can't cover all bases. There are lots of reasons. No one story is going to get all the answers to life's problems right. Over a long period of time, the truth comes out. Intent is often to tell the truth. How forthcoming were you to inform those people who got it wrong? Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot.
