My assumption is all news is fake news.

If everything I know about or research that's posted on YWN/CNN/FOX/ETC is fake, then am I wrong to assume that everything I don't know about is also fake?

News sites can't spend 6 hours researching and writing every story. They'd go broke.
So they make it up instead.

Quote
“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.”
– Michael Crichton (1942-2008)

No, you're absolutely right!

An unbelievable and dignified woman, I was googling her employment info (Atlantic Coast Rehab) so I can speak to her boss. She was advocating for the family very calmly and professionally, running relentlessly from the family to the crew to the police to get things sorted out, running to get medicine for the special needs kid, doing this for maybe 2 hours.  If not for her I highly doubt they get back on the flight, or we reboard quickly.

She was also on the emergency landing flight last week and I believe it was only bec of her efforts that Spirit to put us on a new plane.
Visibly Jewish

I know her personally from Atlantic Coast, she is absolutely the right person for a situation like this. She happens to be Jewish herself.

Interestingly, they aired the video with the LNN stamp in the center

Right that’s what I assume happens, I also think that most people don’t want to take it to the next level and hire lawyers, they’d rather move on than have the story drag on
