The press is usually misinformed and generally biased towards Bitcoin, so it's nothing new. They will run with a story, even if it is a half truth and poorly researched... just to
attract attention. You can never believe most of the #%$^^ released or published, just after a story broke... wait a few hours and you will get a better version of the truth.
When confronted by the truth later, they will just retract the story or make up some poor excuse... misinformation ..da da da... In any way, the whole drugs and Bitcoin thing is
very old news.
i tried explaining the bias part in news articles
just have to accept that it will be like this
original metal coins would have had the same gossip as when seas shells where used
then paper fiat would have first only been used for drugs n guns
now its Bitcoins turn
