Nah, since anything you don't want to believe that was reported from a reputable news source is easily dismissed as rumours

What's the difference between "sources say Vancouver wants Kadri in the deal for Luongo" and "sources say Luongo wouldn't waive his NTC to go to Toronto"?

Why is one supposedly rumors and fantasy while the other one isn't?

You're right, news sources never put rumours on their websites, especially sports sites.

The difference is, the articles regarding Luongo that you posted stated that they were "rumors" and by definition rumors are not facts.......quit being an ass.....
- chompsey

Here are facts:
Canucks fans were demanding Kadri, Gardiner and a 1st for Luongo

They aren't rumours. They are reporting trade discussions in place. And trades don't always go through.

Rumour implies its speculation. Its not. Its reporting discussion that they've heard through sources tied to organizations

Firstly, if you can't name a source, then that source might as well be your crazy neighbors cat.....

Secondly, no where in the article he posted does it say "sources", have a read:

Journalists don't reveal their sources when talking about something that's going on behind closed doors.

ie: Watergate, Deep Throat.

Difference is real news sites report trade discussions that have taken place, with the info. obtained from real sources tied to an organization

A rumour doesn't mean its false and made up

Speculation is false and made up.
