The headline!

"Piranha Found In California Lake"



"Boys Discover Flesh-Eating Fish"



A line from the story, early on...

Last week, a group of Modesto boys reportedly found what a game warden says was a piranha.

After reading several paragraphs along this line, this finally shows up at the very end of the article:

Wildlife officials examined the fish to discover if they were the flesh-eating South American Piranhas, but they have been identified as pacu --plant-eating fish that are in the piranha family.



Pacu are considered expensive, exotic fish that people keep in aquariums.

Officials said that the piranha and the pacu are often confused for each other.



It was not a piranha. It never was a piranha. Yet the headlines and early part of the story said it was. Not that it "might be." That it was. I see four or five news stories like this every day. Most are not as obvious as this in trying to create the impression that something is true that actually is not.
