    What do you think scoop means. If a paper was scooped that means the competition got to it first but they still wrote an article about it. They did not go, oh no we were scooped so no sense in reporting on that.

      My point about the scoop was that they know when someone else has already reported on it. They need to then report on something that hasn’t been covered yet in order to lessen the “muzzle velocity” effect these assholes want.

      You can continue to focus on the wordings of things, or you can start seeing the big picture. It’s up to you.
