[UPDATE] Do you live in City of Lake Worth? Ignore NBC5/WPTV & Palm Beach Daily News story about shooting on Sunday, 5/24

From the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics: "Remember that neither speed nor format excuses inaccuracy."

[UPDATE: CBS12/WPEC got it wrong too. Aren't the good citizens of the City of Lake Worth deserving of fair and accurate news stories? Apparently not. 

If any of these news outlets were this sloppy in West Palm Beach, Delray, or Wellington they would get corrected immediately. Is it time for Lake Worth to assign a Public Information Officer (PIO) to monitor the TV news and print media? An official seal on an email might get more attention than some blogger concerned that his city is being poorly represented.]

This incident occurred outside the City, in suburban Lake Worth. And Palm Beach Daily News reporter also got it wrong.

• Being west of Congress Ave. is a clue the incident did not occur in Lake Worth 
• And being north of Atlantis is a clue
• And being southwest of Palm Beach State College is a clue
• And being northwest of Palm Beach County/Lantana Airport is another clue
