I think the issue here is not whether it should have been reported but that they in aviation should have seen that it was an attempt to stir up fear of turbo props with the flying public, simply to make money off of misery. I feel that they as an aviation news outlet, could have excercised not to run it, due to the fact it would perpetuate falsehoods that would do nothing constructive in getting to the bottom of this tragedy, but only harm aviation in gerneral...But again the media are only concerned if someone else is reporting it than they are afraid they'll lose out on revenue if we dont. They are all the same, its its in my right not to accept the argument "its news" in this case. Mabye Im alone in my thinking, but you cant teach an old dog new tricks...lol
