The victim was taken to an area hospital; his condition is unknown

Which hospital? What's his condition? Does the Sterile know nething?

Information on an incident like this often comes in slowly. You report what you know, even if the details are few. That's better than assuming that the victim went to St. Anne's because it's close to the area of the shooting. It's better to get the story out there, even if there isn't much fact assembled yet.

I agree anon, it is important to get what you know out there as soon as you can. However, reporting the event 14 hours after it occurred, as the HN did, gives much time to fill in some blanks. It wasn't exactly a breaking story after 14 hours later.

Information comes in very slow if ur the Sterile Snooze.
No one askes the Snooze to assume.
People want the Snooze to find out
What was his name? What happened?
More than 24 hours later and The Sterile knows nothing. Watch some more TV, Sterile..or wait for Hurricane on Monday

Details are not few. Are you kidding me! Details that the Herald-Loser knows are few.

Do they even have a police scanner at The Sterile News?

Herald News is the best we've got. Like it or not the alternative is WSAR. How scary is that?

All WSAR does is read the Herald on the air and do stupid polls about nothing. What kind of alternative is that, they are not a news outlet. Just fluff.
