For decades, government pundits have dismissed these "coincidental" deaths, even regarding them as "myths" as "urban legends." Like most people, Richard and David were initially unsure about what to make of these 'coincidences'. After all, events don't "consult the odds" prior to happening; they simply happen.

Was Massenmedien berichten, weicht oft von den Ansichten und Eindrücken großer Teile der Bevölkerung ab – gerade, wenn es um brisante Geschehnisse geht. So entsteht häufig der Eindruck, die Massenmedien in Deutschland seien von der Regierung oder "dem Staat" manipuliert. Aber die heutige Selbstangleichung der Medien hat mit einer gelenkten Manipulation nichts zu tun. Die Massenmedien in Deutschland sind keine Vollzugsorgane staatlicher Meinungsmache.
