CNN, Fox Botch Training Exercise

Item: Coast Guard, 2 media outlets criticized for handling of training exercise:  No other federal, local agencies were notified in advance of maneuvers on Potomac /

More Info: CNN and Fox both reported falsely, as it turned out, that the Coast Guard had opened fire on a suspicious vessel. On Twitter , CNN reported: “Coast Guard confronts boat as Obama visits Pentagon, police scanner reports say shots fired.” It took almost 30 minutes for the network to get clarification and report that the movement by the boats was merely a training exercise. The false reports of gunfire were based on overheard radio calls in which Coast Guard personnel voiced imitation “bang, bang” noises, said Lt. Nadine Santiago, an agency spokeswoman.

Question: Does this shake your faith in CNN, Fox, or the Coast Guard?
