Did journalists carry water testing kits in their back pocket in your day?  Will my aquarium water testing strips work?  What are they testing for?  Are journalists certified or qualified to be "doing their own testing?"  Fully fledged sci laboratories have said that they don't have the information or resources to test  but somehow you think that journalists can do their own testing?   -

Plainly, this is an attack against American journalists.  Straight up disinformation and misinformation on your part.
