1. Nice.

:eyes: From what I was getting CNN the original "misinformation" came straight from the headquarters of rescue/mining operations.

2. No reason to blame the corporations. Just blame the families....

...who have no power. Excuse me if I puke...:puke:

3. Someone heard they'd found them and were checking...

their vital signs and "assumed" the best.

4. I see no 'blame' in either story

They're simply reporting who told what to whom, etc.

"Miscommunication" is accurate, but understated.

5. I am studying to be a reporter.

I thought that the Lounge would be the correct place,
to post a story, that I just made up.
