COMMENTS: Junk Facts
Sharyn Alfonsi made plenty of claims about the scourge of heroin in the first part of her expose on ABC--but offered no facts to back up her generalizations. Her anchor Diane Sawyer even teased Alfonsi's report by telling us that heroin was being marketed in the suburbs "to all those children and teens." Alfonsi never told us about a single child using the drug. Sawyer promised a report on "the skyrocketing use of heroin by teenagers in the suburbs." Alfonsi offered no trendline statistics. She told us that "across the country, heroin use is skyrocketing and teenagers are dying" but did not offer a body count.
Maybe we shall hear the facts about junk in part two.
