I absolutely HATE reporters that deliberately call pickups "trucks" so as to intentionally cast real trucks and drivers in a bad light.

That's just like they mention SUV several times when one is involved in accident. You don't see "Joe Blow and his Civic ran through a stop light and struck a pedestrian...."

I agree. That pisses me off to no end. The so called "breaking news" media was talking trash about the " truck driver " who ran into a family and killed everyone on the beachline east of Orlando about 6 or 8 months ago. On and On about it in the news.
Never said a PICK UP TRUCK DRIVER.
Same crap printed in the Orlando Sentinel
What a bunch of MORONS.

Maybe we should start a campaign on the rear of a trailer that sez:

The News Turns Me Off because they Report Non Descriptive Stories Disguised to Sell Advertising.

Let's remember that msm isn't too bright. They call backhoes "bulldozers". Now here's an easy test: Which one of these is a backhoe and which one is a bulldozer.

'A'


'B'

If you guessed 'A' was a backhoe and that 'B' was a Bulldozer, you're smarter than 99.99% of the news reporters currently working for our media companies.

Ron I had forgotten about those. Yes they are morons, I've seen that too.

I've also seen a reporter call a 10 wheeler straight truck an 18 wheeler semi.
