That's another point Tom brings up; Mister Twister, Draconis and Xydexx's point (and I freely admit I'm calling these people ou to shame the) seems to be "when something bad happens, lie about it".
You don't have to be a trained journalist to see the problems with that line of thinking. My take is even if some stories are actively harmful, it is ethically wrong to not report them; a lie of ommission is still a lie.
