More fake news?Originally posted by inline 6 View Post
Editor's Note: Since publication of this story, the Knoxville (Tenn.) News Sentinel has done additional investigation in an attempt to independently verify Eric Schmitt-Matzen’s account. This has proven unsuccessful. Although facts about his background have checked out, his story of bringing a gift to a dying child remains unverified. The News Sentinel cannot establish that Schmitt-Matzen’s account is inaccurate, but more importantly, ongoing reporting cannot establish that it is accurate. The video has been removed from our site. See full explanation.Comment

Fake or not it's brutal to even think about a kid in that situation.

A local station claims that it has verified the details of the story.Originally posted by Chili View Post
KNOXVILLE, TENN. - The story of a Santa who granted a dying boy his final Christmas wish touched hearts around the world, but skeptics are raising concerns about story details that hadn't been verified.
Eric Schmitt-Matzen, whose Santa story was originally shared by Knoxville News Sentinel columnist Sam Venable, says the account of a terminally ill five-year-old boy dying in his arms at a hospital is true.
WBIR 10News has independently verified several critical details of this story, but has agreed not to publish those for the sake of privacy. Schmitt-Matzen maintains his desire to protect all names involved.
In addition, Schmitt-Matzen's wife, Sharon, of 38 years spoke with 10News on Wednesday night and also helped fill in details of her husband's story and his response to what happened that day in what she said was mid-October. That differs from Schmitt-Matzen's original account of the timeline, in which he said the death happened "about six weeks ago." Schmitt-Matzen told 10News he had the time wrong and that his wife remembers those things better than he does.
“I know how he reacted that next morning, and this is something that weighed so heavy on him,” Sharon Schmitt-Matzen said of her husband’s experience. "I just know that he just needed time by himself to accept what happened because he obviously wasn't prepared for a child to die in his arms."Comment

Oh.. We're supposed to just trust the media now? Because they said they did verify it? lolOriginally posted by Sgt Beavis View Post
Besides, they said several critical details, not the whole story.. The same could be said in reference to what I quoted (that they verified several details).Comment

Sooner or later we are going to read a news story about some irate parent whipping that guys ass after dragging him away from the kids. And the ass whipping would be well deserved in my opinion. His total lack of respect toward other people tells me that he didn't get enough ass whippings as a kid and he needs a reminder about actions and consequences.
Who cares if the kids don't know the truth? Their lives have plenty of time to get shitty later when they grow up. Let them enjoy the idea of Santa now - don't be a dick and steal a part of their childhoods.Comment
