Sorry, Benn, but you still aren't comprehending the difference between hearsay and a confirmed story. It's not hearsay when someone reports having seen something. People are presumed to be telling the truth. That's why we allow people to testify about what they've seen in court. Hearsay, on the other hand, is when a person who's seen something tells a third person and that third person makes statements about it. That third person's testimony is hearsay and inadmissible in court.

When independent sources report having seen the same thing, that's called confirmation, which is what the Toronto Star (and all legitimate newspapers require to publish a story). That's what the Star has here, a confirmed story: multiple, independent sources reporting having seen the same thing (the video).

Now, those people could be lying, but that still doesn't make it hearsay.
