What passes for reporting and journalism just sucks. Inuendo, extrapolation, idle speculation and very little clear delineation of what is known and what is not known. There are even instances of being told what the authorities are doing when the authorities have not said what exactly they are doing. One reporter even stated that search warrents were being obtained so they could go to the school.
They're trying hard but sometimes it is best to say less or nothing at all.

They are not "trying hard"...IMO.
They are trying to beat others to the story...and they release things before they become fully varified.
It may be a harmless practice in minor cases...but not when it involves something like this...
