...that they repeat the original story quite early in the article, but do not actually explain what really happenend till the end. Thus the reader is first given an image that is negative, which emotively the explanation does not effectively correct. I hope they didn't do that deliberately, but as journos this is pretty much lesson 101. I wonder who's stitching you.
