    Very odd that virtually the same article (same author, same news agency) in two different places has two such wildly differing headlines.

    One headline says, "Porn actor murder suspect taken into custody".
    The other says, "Porn actor sought on slaying dies in hillside fall".

    Which one is right?

    Is the guy dead? In custody? Died in custody?

    Porn aficionados want to know!

    Fox says a SWAT team cornered him on a cliffside and after an 8 hour standoff he leapt to his death.

    I think initial reports were that he was taken into custody. What you're seeing are just incomplete, bad edit jobs.

    Um.

    Normally, I am all over the scourge of bad journalism and shit editing, but this isn't really either.

    "Porn actor taken into custody" was the news Jun. 5, 2010 06:20 PM....the man clearly fell off the cliff and initially survived the fall.

    "Porn actor sought in slaying dies in hillside fall" was the news Sun Jun 6, 12:03 am ET....clearly the article was altered once the man died.

    AZ Central just needs to update it's news more often.

    General Streck: "For your sake, Mr. Rivers, you had better hope that Sergeant Kruger survives."

    (phone rings, Streck answers)

    General Streck: "What is the condition of Sergeant Kruger? I see, let me know if there is any change in his condition."

    (hangs up)

    General Streck: "He's dead!"

    As soon as I read "Porn Actor", I figured it would be a guy. Women are more likely to be referred to as "porn star" I suspect.

    And, no one asked if he swallowed first. Is it not important?
