I hate "hear-say" situations, because you only have the persons word for it. In the entire series there has been only 1 or 2 events where hearsay turned out to be true. One was about the war, and the other was more rumour about an apprentice being fired by Oda or something like that. I still, take them with a pitch of salt. The problem with hear-say is if you throw 100 basketballs at a net, sooner or later there is a chance one will go in the net. Meaning, sooner or later *one turns out true* even its not from an official source.
