Notice the subtle, artful recasting of news media as part of a paranoid explanatory scheme.

That different unrelated media outlets write different stories, at different times, with different pieces of information, is described as "odd," when in fact it's normal and inevitable.

The "official story" (UCD's public statements), which has been reprinted verbatim in many outlets, is falsely described as "on hold."

"Sifted morsels of information in timed bits" implies a Hidden Hand -- a malign, controlling central intelligence -- which lies at the core of every delusional system. In fact, five different media outlets have published stories about the issue, all of whom are inherently jealous rivals of each other. No one agent wields significant power over all five of them. Masterminding media coverage on a story like thisis like herding cats; any real Hidden Hand would be chewing its knuckles after a week of it.... Not in Ray's world, though.

I'd advise readers always to keep an eye peeled for paranoid explanations of anything. They'll give you a quick and emotionally satisfying handle on just about anything. They are almost invariably wrong, however.

the summer dp hasn't mentioned anything about the incident since their original may 24 article

the daily news article that appeared june 1 after its original article may 16 shifted the focus away from ucd and onto blackwell.

all in all, it's odd, how the official story is on hold, yet we're given, meanwhile, sifted morsels of information in timed bits...
