For those interested in spin control...

Same story also appeared on PRNewsWire, which I suspect has a higher
circulation than Canada Newswire.  Screen capture attached.

"PRNewswire" isn't an Associated Press, isn't a CBC, isn't a BBC.  It's a method for any corporation or organization to self-publish a press release.  Companies use it all the time.  No one determines if it is newsworthy or accurate -- you just post it up.  But it gives the impression to the uneducated that it's a wire service like AP.  It isn't.
