There was a horrible story in the news today but it had a happy ending. Ten years ago three young girls were kidnapped right off the streets of Cleveland and today they were all rescued, alive.
An amazing story, and one that deserves better than to be turned into an SAT question. You know, the kind where one train leaves Detroit at 10 am traveling west at 65 mph and another train leaves Boston at 12:30 pm traveling east at 80 mph and you have to figure out if they would crash around 3 pm in New Jersey. Well, if it was left to FOX News they would never figure it out. I am sure they flunked the SAT exam back in their school days.
This is from the article appearing at http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/05/07/2-ohio-teen-girls-missing-for-decade-found-alive-as-cops-offer-few-details/#ixzz2SbzNfp2I
“They didn’t provide the current ages for the other two women.”
Really?
Hmmm, let’s figure this out.
Berry disappeared 10 years ago nearly to the day. She was 16. 16 +10 = 26.
BREAKING NEWS! Berry is 26 years old!
Dejesus disappeared about a year later. She was 14. 14+9=23
FOX NEWS BREAKING NEWS ALERT! Dejesus is 23 years old.
So much for the “investigative journalism” of FOX News.
I’d love to have been at that press conference.
POLICE: Ms. Berry was 16 when she was kidnapped ten years ago.
FOX REPORTER: Officer! How old does that make her now?
POLICE: Stunned silence.
FOX REPORTER: I’ll put you down for “no comment.”
