This is why you have to be careful with the media, both with what you tell them, and with what you believe from them. News reporters have a tendency to tweak stories just a bit, whether it is from lack of understanding, or trying to mold the story into something they want it to be. It's great that we have a community here which is willing to look at things with a critical eye first, rather than deeming everything they hear as fact. (Except in the case of the manual... the manual doesn't lie.)
