The NT news is always looking for a story other than crocs. I had an incident up that way once and in the morning paper they were saying that the ATSB were investigating the incident. I hadn't even started to write my report! To busy at the pub counting my lucky stars to care.
There are always going to be bad jurnos there's nothing we can do about it. Hopefully we can credit Mr. and Mrs. Citizen with enough intelligence to sort the truth from the BS.
