[ViviTheMage]

can you imagine how fast cnn would go out of business if they only posted news and not speculation?

Ahhh, true. Guess they can always move it to "BREAKING NEWS" or UPDATED .. our sources were shit...

I can't check if this is the correct article since cracked is blocked at work, but I think this is the one
http://www.cracked.com/article_18718_6-famous-unsolved-mysteries-that-have-totally-been-solved.html

Actually the article talks about the bones that were found in 1940. It's just that now they can test them to see if they are hers.

How would they have her actual DNA? Did they take her blood before she flew or something and keep it all these years?

this makes more sense... i remember hearing on the news that they recovered plane fragments and a pair of sandles in her size at some island quite a few years ago.

That's absurd...most turtles can't fly airplanes.

Wait so they are testing bone fragments found from 1940 now? Because that makes a little sense at least, whereas "we found bones in the middle of nowhere. better check to see if they're amelia earhart." is basically retarded.

On second reading they just found the bones near where the other bones were found back in 1940. I guess the 1940 bones are no longer available for testing.

That goes for all news services nowadays. they never verify the story before posting it. It's all about being first, to hell with the facts.

"The fragments could be from a turtle"

And these are the same kind of people that find bones in Africa and think they've found proof for evolution.

How is it news if they don't know yet?

I think the news should be, "Bones tested on an island to figure out who they boned. Could be Amelia Earhart, could be Jesus, could be JFK, could be Santa! More at 11"
