PR post Vigilantes rule book DRAFT

a lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes

Right. Modus operandi: Feverishly make stuff up. Ignore hundreds of hard facts. Dont go to Italy. Dont attend court. Dont interview police. Dont interview prosecution. Dont read court documents. Demonize police. Demonize prosecution. Believe every word Knox says though she served three years for criminal lying. Dont publish in Italian. Be even more shrill than the previous claimant. Thump your chest about how stupid and corrupt those Italians are, though you have no Italian, and no qualifications at all to investigate crimes. Keep Mariott’s and the Knox-Mellases’ fingerprints off it. Get naive experts and understaffed news media to lie to Americans and Brits, though not to Italians. Harass the victim’s family. Make money out of all of the above.
