Hi Anthony,
I used to post gliding accidents I came across from my various news sources
until somebody on the list accused me of being prurient.
So don’t do it too often.
Cheers
Chris

Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Bad news reporting - correction request
Generally speaking, the Media is not interested in the facts, only headlines.
Anything that falls out of the sky represents headlines to them and they are
not interested in letting any facts get in the way of their story.
All segments of aviation, GA, RAAus, GFA etc. get tarnished with the same brush
when anything falls out of the sky – after all, we are all crazy to be pursuing
such unnatural dangerous activities.
Trying to correct them will only put them off side – I suggest you not bother!
Furthermore, be very careful about anything you might say to a journalist if
interviewed about an adverse incident and never express an opinion. It will be
misconstrued.
