None of any Facts

I think his points here are very valid- save his second paragraph opener. "Not only is this a meaningless, fear-mongering story..." is simply untrue. You argument point that there isn't enough information is valid and well put together, but works against you here. You show no evidence that this story tries to incite fear, and while extremely incomplete, this story is not meaningless. Even if this turned out to be a false alarm, it's helpful to know why police are blockading your apartment. There is meaning here, even if it is small and very localized. However, I agree that this story was in no condition to air. It is so incomplete that it is barely helpful to anyone watching the show.
