    The media has to sell ads and keep advertisement revenue up. "At sea for 66 days" makes money. Fiction entertainment or adventure is O K by them.
    The media has already proved that they could not identify a fact if it slapped them on the ,,,,, face and could care less to follow up on anything. There is always another headline to make money off of.

    He would still had drifted further than he did, then 66 minutes sounds better.
