Flapless Landings

What can one say if only the papers found out more information and then told the public.
Meaning pilot have regular checks and land an aircraft flapless could well be one of these.
Also why the reason the aircraft could not land in Jersey was the runway was not long enough for a flapless landing.
They ommited to say that there is no problem with landing with out the flaps and adding the aircraft touch down speed is higher and the land roll longer, instead of giving Joe and his pulic the fright of there life with only half a story.
