The news releases all had qualifiers ("possibility they were shot") I believe the reporters all had qualifiers in their stories ... but when it hit the teases... the qualifiers were gone. And when the stories were rewritten by the producers, or anchors the qualifiers were gone.
This is one of the long standing disputes in any tv newsroom, ask any reporter over a beer and you will hear more than you would ever like to...
Most reporters work hard to get these things right only to have the teases and intros put the wrong info in people's heads.
