From personal experience, Florio is NOT alone in copying previous articles.Florio isn't a hater, he is a copycat and a lazy journalist.
A few years ago, myself and others were in hypermiling articles, and the first 1-2 articles (with their misinformation of what we do ) propagated into the many articles that followed. That experience suggests 'factual reports' are often OP/EDs. Nobody is completely dispassionate, but many don't even try. Reporters can't print all the information, but what they filter into the story may be a fair representation or an attempt to promote their agenda.
