departments that are dedicated to checking facts.

Seems like a pretty broad statement. I have lived in the U S from San Diego,
California on the West coast to Washington, D C on the East coast and many
places in between. I was a central Dallas Texas police patrolman. I have viewed
many occurrences that was reported in the newspapers and I can't remember one
that was completely accurate. I can remember many that was very incorrect. I.e.
About 2 AM I was reading in my country home when I heard a car roar by and a
loud thump. I grabbed a light and ran out. A young couple in a convertible had
hit an electrical pole. Both went flying. The young lady hit the pole and her
skull was split. The young man crawled around until he located her. While
trying to revive her got a handful of brain and came unglued. I called 911 and
gave them all the info I had. The Police, ambulance and newspeople arrived
about 10 minutes later. The young lady was laying on her back appearing as if
she was sleeping except for the head injury. The News Photographer moved the
hem of bottom of her dress to just below her crouch before taking her photo. I
went back in my house and spoke to no one. Keep Smiling, Buddy
