The 'reactionary' part is that what they claim happened didn't happen. Without
access (or reference) to the original article it's no surprise that it seems
grossly ridiculous. I did read the original article and it was barely similar to
all else I'd read referring to it.
I have no problem with difference of opinion about the value of what actually
happened, I'm just yet to see one. It would be nice if the internet media was
held to similar standards as other areas of information reportage but alas it's
a constant battle between scaremongering from all sides.
