Yesterday (here and here), your equine public servant got her gorgeous, combable tail all ruffled by the either terrible or outright corrupt "journalism" displayed by WUSA 9 News, the DC CBS affiliate.
This morning I received a response from anchorman Mike Walter, who writes:
I'm trying to track down information on your earlier missive. I have to admit I let you down, I should have asked more questions about the story. It was a late add to the show. I know the news director is taking your earlier email seriously and is also asking lots of questions about the copy story.I'm very impressed by Mr. Walter's response. Updates as warrented! Let this be a lesson: When you see something wrong, don't be afraid to say, "That's wrong," even if your body is pink and is adorned with fine, multicolored glitter.
Best Regards,
Mike Walter

I am surprised and pleased with the mia culpa from Mr. Walter.
Here is the important question. Will they say nothing more about it, or will they do a second report that goes something like "We recently reported about bovineunite.com (pictures of bu.c) It turns out that bu.c is a viral marketing campaign designed to create a buzz about (this company's product). bu.c is not the first website to have done this kind of campaign... blah blah blah more free ads for bu.c
