Apply Occam's Razor, Sky.

The simplest theory is that the news is true as they tell it; the next level of complexity is that the news is true as they tell it, with the additional weight of new data changing or superseding previous editions. From there, things become ever more complicated as more variations and theories work their way into it, making it more difficult to prove satisfactorily; such ad hoc hypotheses only cloud the issue further by adding unnecessary layers of obfuscation to the story.
