Do you wanna know why people hate the media? Because they for every fair, balanced story they report they pull crap like this: KCRA 3 here in Sacramento just reported on a story they called "Gone Fishing." Several Sac Sheriff homicide detectives requested and were approved for time off to go on a fishing trip. Just like anyone else, they are permitted to take time off. While this went on the The Sheriff dept asked Sac PD to cover on a homicide case. Basically this was a management mistake. The Sheriff's dept had enough detectives to cover it, but didn't realize so they asked Sac PD to step in. Simple managment mistake. What's the problem? They kept playing up the fact that the Sheriff's dept's detectives took a vacation. They kept making comments like, "but Sac PD had to respond because Sheriff's dept. detectives were on... VACATION. They even ended the story by stating that the sheriff's dept had no comment as to whether or not the vacationing detectives caught any fish. Really? Really?! Was it such a slow news day that you had to make a story out of this crap? Try and stir up a little controversy? I'm not saying that law enforcement is without corruption, there is very little in his world that is, but GO FIND IT. Do your fucking job and find a real story instead of trying to make a small mistake into some controversial display of incompetence. People in this country already have a severe lack of respect for the people who protect it you don't need to add to it by glancing over the fact that even though this time it wasn't necessary, PD covering for Sheriffs is a ROUTINE PRACTICE and has nothing to do with the detectives taking a normal vacation. By the way KCRA, have you never made a mistake? I'm pretty sure you have, since you kept flashing the name and rank for a Sac PD Officer while showing a County Sheriff official standing in front of a SHERIFF DEPT SIGN. Please do your damn job, don't harass people doing their's.
