I'm mostly talking larger news orgs, inc wire services. They have resources. However, if manpower is tight, maybe they could redirect some manhours from their sportsball or celeb divisions.

I will agree that local news orgs tend to show ineptitude whenever local LEO issue a PR. They'll just parrot what is said - no analysis at all - not even when a 5 sec search would reveal blatant misinfo (re:kids are at meaningful risk of stranger kidnapping).
