CNN again making Toronto look bad by comparing flu outbreak to SARS
its been all over CNN today. And every report i see mentions SARS which has nothing to do with what is essentially a really bad strain of flu. Even though they say it isnt the flu bug itself. But sensationalist CNN doesnt care.
Here ladies and gentleman, is a lesson in yellow journalism and irresponsible journalism.
Note how they mention SARS but do not directly tie it in with the actual story they are presenting. They let you come to this conclusion yourself and lead you to the wrong conclusion.
The mission here is obviously to scare your pants off

The cause of the outbreak at the Seven Oaks Home for the Aged remains unknown, although officials insisted the situation was under control. Thirty-eight people remained hospitalized with the illness, and officials fear many of them are too frail to fully recover. Another 88 residents, employees and visitors have been affected. Public health officials have said it may never be possible to determine the exact type of bug responsible for the rash of illnesses, but they have ruled out influenza, avian flu, SARS and Legionnaire's disease. Anxiety over the outbreak has been exacerbated by fears of SARS -- severe acute respiratory syndrome -- which claimed 44 lives in Toronto from two outbreaks in the spring of 2003. More than 8,000 people worldwide contracted the illness and 774 people died. Authorities have said the outbreak, while more serious than average, was not particularly unusual, especially as the flu season approaches |

Nothing like a little controversy to get people to tune in to your station.
Remember folks. The number 1 job of the any media is to make money.
If it is on CNN it most be the truth.
