This has been covered over and over again. It is sensationalism at it's best right up there with shark attacks.
You've got way more of a chance of your tire failing or your car crashing due to other things then them being "old", but they just too mundane for the news to report.

Also, of all the times this has been posted, your "Don't truth any new tires" is the least understandable that I've seen...
