it’s cute the way ye olde time journalists felt free to just make up whatever cool stories they wanted, like describing a circus elephant running a man clean through with their mighty tusks when the elephant in question did not in fact have tusks.

nobody would do this nowdays, of course

journalists don’t get paid enough to fabricate ripping good yarns any more :(
