Maybe it was always the case, but it feels like reporting what people say instead of what happened (independently verified) is way, way up.

Most people looking at that headline will take away that a hospital exploded, and the clear implications from it. Reading the article won't really dissuade you from that.

I don't even really thing it's entirely malicious (which is part of the problem), it's the absolute desire to get the "scoop" in a world where everything is broadcast live on Xitter.
