Fake News is fiction, a lie, propaganda.? What is being described sounds more like incompetence.? But of course there are a zillion "channels" now and many fewer paying subscribers, so what do you expect in terms of quality?? How many subscriptions do you pay for? Fewer and fewer people pay for their news sources these days so quality will inevitably suffer.

It's not like it was, 50 years ago when it would have taken 20 minutes (at most) to find out who the company is. Now a few seconds with a search engine would have told them who Keysight is. The difference between losing two portables and a couple vehicles vs losing the entire corporation is a huge error that a real journalist wouldn't have made.

?Whats with the "Fake News" rhetoric. Using the term "Fake News" infers
purposeful?deception which I highly doubt is the case. Reporters are humans and they do make mistakes. Also, not everyone?is an electronics nerd interested in $100,000 pieces?of test gear so It's not surprising that a normal person wouldn't know who Keysight is. How many electronics geeks?know who Beneteau is ??and yet they are worlds most highly regarded?builders of high-performance cruising and racing sailboats. By the way, a quick check if the USGS shows that there was indeed a small earthquake just outside Sonoma on the 14th.
