My comment wasn't directed at this particular manager. I really just used that to note that MSM gets things wrong a LOT. Yet everyone puts so much stock in it. Whereas friends and acquaintances make comments not posted in MSM and no one wants to believe it. But those comments are usually true and truer than MSM.
Hi moonbeams - it appears you have some questions about MSM. Please feel free to pm a mod at anytime if you have questions.
Websleuths does not allow rumors posted on social media because there is no way to verify the original poster or the information that is given. It is the type of stuff members generally take a look at and keep in the back of their minds, without posting it here, while they sleuth and follow the case.
We rely on MSM, because although it's not perfect, we can source the information. We also allow public info, LE reports and other verifiable information.
Hope that helps,
Salem
