Browne wrong again: Terrence Farrell

Fnord said:
I'm sorry EMM, but trust is not so important as entertainment. The Fourth Estate runs on a thing called Situational Ethics. If a story will sell papers, that's great! If an article sells papers, but offends a major advertiser who then threatens to pull it's sponsorship, the paper is likely to tone down it's rhetoric. If a story offends some Really Powerful People, then a paper is likely to drop the story entirely.

The same goes for broadcast journalism; thus the "Dan Rather vs. the Whitehouse" incident. Guess who won that battle?

The best bet is to draw from several independent news sources, and then draw your own conclusions. Tune in to VOA, the BBC, and even Radio Moscow and Radio Peking for a wider range of views on the same story, and then make an informed choice as to what the truth is.

Let's not turn this thread into a debate about ethics and lies in newspapers.

I think his point was there is little reason to think that the mother of a dying child (or the reporter) would lie in a newspaper regarding a firefighter's disappearance 5 days after 9/11.

You're right, of course. I was trying to expound on the maxim "Don't believe everything you read." While slanted or inaccurate news reporting may not be everywhere, it is still a good idea to check the story.

Are you saying that you think the reporter would have called up Browne to confirm that she had said that the firefighter was alive?

What I would like to know is, how did the woman talk to Browne? There is a waiting list. The length of it is in dispute, but there is a list.

For this woman to have heard about the firefighter being missing from 9/11, and to have spoken to Browne about it in time for it to make a paper on 9/15, she would have either had to have made an appointment long before, or Browne would have had to make an exception in this woman's case and allow her to circumvent the waiting list.

The reporter could have done something like have asked to see her credit card records, which would have confirmed the story.

I think she was allowed to circumvent it; I can easily imagine someone doing something like that after 9/11.

Her. I'm a woman. Yeah, I don't see why someone would lie about something like that.

I had just found Sheri's phone and address and was about to link to it but it looks like you beat me to it. :boxedin:

Found strangled in her apartment, a $30,000 reward, including $10,000 from Mayor Bloomberg was offered, mother and boyfriend went on Montel and the killer was never found.

20) Carol Wood (Browne told her sisters everything they already knew and gave them a ton of false leads that they made police follow up on. No trace of Carol, her murderer or her car has ever been found.)

21) Pat Viola http://www.patriciaviolamissing.homestead.com/ (Browne sent a private investigator the woman's husband hired on a wild goose chase all the way to Ohio. From Jersey. Needless to say, it turned up nothing and no trace of Pat has ever been found.)

Hmm, I just did. Hope it's him.

The same thing happened with Rachel Cooke. Several years ago, a man named Michael Moore, already in prison for life for the murder of a pregnant woman confessed to it but later changed his mind about having done it.
 
Wow!
Could this list be consolidated and made to be a sticky thread?

Or, could we have a separate "Sylvia's wrong again" subforum?
 
*sigh* So Sylvia was wrong again? Is ANYONE here actually surprised?

And I have to side with Joe here - this thread should be made sticky so that the forums aren't cluttered up with "SB wrong again threads, but that's just me and I'm lazy...

Well, making a thread abuot Terrence Farrell the sticky thread would be misleading.

And having only one thread where all of the Browne cases are discussed is a bad idea, in my way of thinking about it. If someone wants to follow the conversation regarding one particular case, they would have to wade through all of the other cases.

If all the Browne-related threads are bothering people, perhaps there needs to be a "Psychics" forum, and we can move all the Browne, Dubois, Edward, van Praagh, etc threads there. If anyone wanders in, they would have no right to be peeved if the majority of the threads there were Browne-related. If they had no interest in discussions of psychics, they could simply stay out.

And by the way, the point of these threads is not to "surprise" anybody. It is, among other things, to document what is found, and share that information with other skeptics interested in the same thing.
 
Well, the reason I'm following up on cases Browne has "worked" on is because there's always the chance they'll be a new developement and it could provide material for Robert's site.

Or you could use this material to make a point about how ineffectual she is. The most of a kind of cases that SB has on her resume are ice cold ones.

Families are desperate, killers are on the loose, bodies are decomposing, huge amounts of money are being offered and no psychic in the world does anything about it.

The fact that she sees all of these cases where so much is at stake and all those missing persons and homicide and other cases are still unsolved alone would tip me off.
