5 media myths about Everest busted

Theres nothing some journalists like more than a bit a death. It generates controversy, helps sell copy, and gives them an opportunity to drum up hatred against people who live more interesting lives than they do. And this year on Everest 10 people have died, the highest death toll since 2006. Combine this with German climber Ralf Dujmovits photo of climbers queueing up the Lhotse Face thats getting buzzed around the world, and theyve been having a field day.
