Les - Sometimes, sure. But ALL of them ALWAYS? Not to mention TV & radio. I can remember the reports at the time, as they happened.   

Little Hawk - I don't think the press is ALWAYS anything. Lots of lives get chewed over, as you say. But accurate reporting does exist alongside it, and quotes are not always distorted.

I am balancing what I heard then against what I read now, and I have my doubts. But this is never going to be resolved one way or the other because it's a question of what you believe. And I just don't believe him.
