NBC/MSNBC: No Arrests Made/Pictures of Black Bags Carriers Important

[blogslut]

Pete Williams says there's still nothing solid yet.

[blogslut]

1. Williams, just now says

FBI is looking for someone, they have a "face".

No arrest imminent.

[dkf]

3. I was wondering how they would find the person even if they have a pic.

[snooper2]

4. But DU just told me an arrest has been made

make up our minds LOL.....


Oh wait, maybe I'll just wait for somebody in a position of authority provide data

11. This may just be another CNN "too close to call" moment. nt

[Johnny2X2X]

2. You sure

Being reported several places an arrest has been made.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

7. Yep, two sources to CNN -- one said to be from Boston LE and the

other from the FBI.

[ChangeUp106]

5. An Arrest Will Be Made

Whether or not CNN is correct right now, they will be eventually so they won't look stupid in the end

[Lone_Star_Dem]

6. Well, it is CNN saying they'd made an arrest.

Time will tell, but their track record isn't the best.

[global1]

8. Both Fox And CNN Are Reporting An Arrest Has Been Made.....

MSNBC/NBC is still saying that it hasn't gone down yet.

[CanonRay]

15. Unfortunately, neither one is a news organization

[CakeGrrl]

17. Once in a blue moon, Fox can be like the National Enquirer or TMZ

The NE and TMZ are correct far more often, but I've seen Fox get some early scoop once or twice.

With two places reporting, NBC/MSNBC might be lagging.

[malaise]

25. They also both told me that Obamacare was overturned n/t

[winter is coming]

9. Even if they question someone now, it might not be the "right" bag. n/t

[randome]

10. If the widely identified bag was the bomb, it wasn't black.

Maybe the bag had a black liner.

12. NECN is reporting they have made an arrest and he is being taken to the courthouse by Fed Marshalls

new england cable news

[ChangeUp106]

16. Allison Kilkinny's retweet sums it up best

[City Lights]

18. msnbc says it has two sources that say NO ARREST HAS BEEN MADE,

and that an official statement to refute those claiming otherwise will be made shortly.

Time will tell...

Edited to add that msnbc also saying lord and taylor video is promising and that investigators are following that lead.

23. NBC/MSNBC = pure propaganda = emotional not rational thinking

as per the very definition of propaganda:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda

---Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed towards influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position by presenting only one side of an argument. Propaganda is usually repeated and dispersed over a wide variety of media in order to create the chosen result in audience attitudes.

As opposed to impartially providing information, propaganda, in its most basic sense, presents information primarily to influence an audience. Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus possibly lying by omission) to encourage a particular synthesis, or uses loaded messages to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target audience to further a political, religious or commercial agenda. Propaganda can be used as a form of ideological or commercial warfare.---

26. Duude

It's all propaganda. Some sources are just less misleading and scoop-greedy.

[City Lights]

27. Fox Nooze rules the propaganda stage.

CNN just claimed that an arrest=guilt...the police do not make mistakes.
