No Fact Zone should do a bit more research on stories that break April 2nd

Sometimes it’s best to do a little more research before posting a story. And we should probably do a bit more research on stories that come out even the day after April Fool’s. Also, mainstream news sources should do the same.
That is all.

So Stephen is going directly to Afghanistan right after a week’s worth of shows?! Or maybe he’ll stay in NC for a few days before deploying to Afghanistan.

Ignore my last comment. I doubt he would have all of those guests on next week if he was going straight there. Silly me. Must think things through:)

Raeford is still four and a half hours from where I live, but it’s cool to know that he’ll be in the same state as me! :)

Whoa…is this the tip-off of when he’s going and where he’s going?! Does anyone else think that’s a bit of a security breach? Yikes.

Yikes. If that’s the case, I sure wouldn’t want to be that WRAL reporter right now!

I know, right? The whole point was for us to not know when he was leaving. But then…if he’s doing a show from a location near to Fort Bragg, that’s kind of a giveaway.

This seems like a security problem.

I tried to link and it said URL not found… perhaps someone has been tipped to the breach?!?!?!? Or, the site has crashed based on the nation’s love for Stephen and the staff at The Report!

Ooh, you’re right, the link doesn’t work anymore. I wonder if someone wasn’t supposed to report that…yikes.

I think you’re right. There is an article on wral.com about Fort Bragg troops being deployed but there’s no mention of the show anymore.

Yikes! Someone made a bit of snafoo, I suppose.

I’m thinking security breach, but I guess we’ll never know.

Be sure to report to your NFZ troops upon your return!
I love your story of sitting in the tomato garden of your grandma’s place. So cute!
