The Inaccuracy of First Reports

First reports, whether in the military or civilian world, are often inaccurate due to limited perspectives, emotional biases, and adrenaline. This is not necessarily due to political agenda, but rather the fact that one person cannot see or understand the entirety of an event. Even with multiple perspectives, it is still challenging to know what truly happened.
