If you weren't awake last night that late, you missed a great showcase of social media and 24-hour news chasing a Texas Chainsaw Massacre story on nothing more than one tip - a psychic saying there were bodies there. Furthermore, there hadn't even been a search warrant granted, so coverage was of dozens of cars sitting outside a house.
