A terrible tragedy compounded by a false hope – that’s the story out of West Virginia. It’s a really sad day, and my heart goes out to the families who are grieving. Yes, the press screwed up, but then it underlines the truism that first reports are wrong, something we’ve seen over and over and over. And to be fair, the families didn’t get their news from the press, if anything, it was the other way around. Yes, we all admire the gimlet eyed hard head who doesn’t get carried away with improbably good news after the fact, but we forget how much we hate them at the time for throwing cold water on our celebration.
