The original report was from Kerr County (TX). They posted this:
If you read what was being posted by the media local to Kerry County, at no point was a villain being created.
That's a common perspective and it's strongly promoted by certain powerful individuals. I'm always curious about examples, but I seldom see actual examples of the media inventing a story that was false.
And a responsible pilot shouldn't require a TFR to know that it was entirely wrong and dangerous to be flying in that area with search and rescue operations in progress and people's lives hanging in the balance.
That was the situation. The pilot was violating a TFR. This has nothing to do with trying to blame the media or what altitude the drone was at. They should not have been flying there at all.
Really? Suggest that "the media" lied about the incident and shrug it off?
Fox News, Huffington Post, and essentially every outlet in between reported the collision. You suggest that they might have all conspired to promote a falsehood?
