Reporters write what make them feel good. Facts are not really important, but just the flavor of the article. I worked as a press photographer back in the olden days of film. Many times I would be right in the middle of an event or press conference, taking pictures and listening to what is going on. The next day I read the paper, and see the photos I took, and wonder what planet the reporter is from to have written what they wrote. Their perception filter was completely different than mine.
I always figured the reporters lived in the world of movies. I saw a movie the other night where a lady photographer shot photos with a digital camera, but pulled a roll of 35mm film out of her bag to process it in a darkroom with a red safelight, and then was looking at a strip of 120 color transparencies. Pure Hollywood reality, or maybe the world reporters live in.
