Something may have happened.
Something may have happened. Or not. Let's report it, if there was an it.
I don't suppose anyone got off their butt and actually asked Amtrak? No, no, of course not. Just cut-and-paste the third-hand tweet.
Eventually, presuming people's minds are not totally turned to mush by tweets and blogs, they will realize that actual news organizations with care and caution were invented for a reason, and reinvent that wheel. After destroying it and gloating about it, of course.
