My point was that the Tonkin incident was reported incorrectly and did not match fact; as we found out some decades later.
Tying that to this thread: why is what’s reported about the airlines taken to be fact? (And I’m not speaking as if I mean this is malicious (as the Tonkin incident was) - just reported incorrect from fact for other “capital friendly” (face saving) reasons.)
Didn’t someone say “believe half of what you read…” somewhere?
