Angry

Max_Cont.... I sent off a broadside to Mark Carter (For it was he) the journo who wrote this piece. I hope others will do so as well. I was furious at the way all this was presented by a bunch of sad people by a journalist (I use the word advisedly) who was out for sensationalism. Got right out of my pram I did, and spat the dummy bigtime.
I sent him a follow up E-Mail from my own personal E-Mail giving my real name, as I did not want to hide behind the anonymous nom de plume of Taildragger. I'm angry at falling standards of journalism and the lack of will to check a story properly, particularly in Aviation.
But then, the truth doesn't sell newspapers, and only gets in the way of entertainment.
