Spoke with KOIN News 6 and they said that Kyron's Body Has Not Been Found

  • #81
I'm horrified. Just speechless.

Whether it's true, or untrue, this little boy was used and disrespected in a horrible way. He should mean more, to all of us.

God bless you, Kyron. I'm sorry isn't enough.

So they would have had it typed up already and with the part about the SM being arrested, they have no clue if she is the one that would be arrested or not. So do they type up stories a head of time for every different scenario that might possibly happen?

I wonder if the "journalist" who posted that story was prepared to walk off the job for good? Terribly irresponsible... shouldn't have a desk in the morning, imo. :furious:

If he/she was a real journalist, they would never go home with a story breaking...

KOIN posting falsely about Kyron's body being found followed soon after there was a thread here on WS about Kyron's body being found. It makes me think that KOIN wanted to be the first to publish such info and didn't check with LE first. Very strange all together.

You're right. It could be a bitter employee's way of saying, "I quit."

I may need to admit my damn self in the Hospital after all this. I am litterly shaking.

I know exactly how you feel. I've been trying to deliberately staying off of this thread because I don't think I can take another little child case but here I am. I've checked on updates since Kyron has been missing. Too heartbreaking to follow missing children. I don't know why I do this to myself.

IF IF this story has any truth to it, then LE did not want it known and that needs to be respected. if someone blabbed about something they saw they broke the cardinal rule of being a searcher. Many posters here have participated in searches and they know full well they should not say anything.
I hope this is a cruel hoax and not someone taking it upon themselves to jeopardize and undermine a search. Those of you with friends in this search remind them to keep what they know to themselves if they start to tell you anything!
Of course my first hope is that Kyron is alive.

I think so Dimples. Yesterday when I called KOIN she told me they use a new script for each show.

Why would they have 2 pieces of bad information...body found AND arrest made and post both without verifying? That seems odd, almost as though they had a story ready and just ran it too soon? They (KOIN) believe that the two things will happen and happen simultaneosly, more or less?

What story?....there was no story with the link and the headline on KOIN said NOTHING about any arrest. That is just a rumor piled on a rumor.

There were tweets and rumors everywhere. That thread was clearly marked as a rumor and was pulled as soon as possible.
But it reinforces what we have been saying all along and have been taking so much flack and nasty emails about.
Please don't post rumors.

Thank you for pointing this out, raeann.

Those mentioning that KOIN's 5pm broadcast said nothing at all about Kyron: what about other local stations?

Thank you, 6angels. Let's all do our part to ensure that Kyron is not disrespected in this horrifying way again. No more rumors.

I caught the beginning of KGW's 5:00 newscast. Their first story was about scammers taking advantage of the situation and setting up fake donation funds. I left before they moved onto any other news about it.

Thanks Dorothyz, It was 5:01 when I turned it on so must have missed that. About 8 min into their 5:30 to 6pm broadcast they did report on the case in general. No mention of the feau de pas ;}

What the heck ... How could that end up on a website? All I can think is: newbie manning the website hit Publish button in error as they tried out different mock headlines. Or it is a mental manipulation on part of powers that be (PTB).
