Just about every day while reading the news I will see this message: "The spokesman spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the issue." Really? If you're not authorized to speak, why are you speaking?
The latest I read it was a story about the train wreck in WA. Trying to determine what caused the accident. My guess is that a train traveling at 80mph in a 30mph zone might have had something to do with the accident. Not an expert, just a guess.
I know, the cause was an engineer that did not slow down for some reason. I'm sure they will find a reason in a few days and then you will have a reason. Until then the story is about the injured and those that died. I'll bet I can find another spokesman tomorrow that is not authorized to speak on another issue but will be speaking anyway.
