Snort: Wolf Blitzer says Boston bombing suspects look ‘cocky’; CNN’s coverage sparks mockery

Wolf Blitzer just analyzed a photo of suspect #2 and said he "looks a little cocky" Thanks for the great journalism Wolf! #CNN

Wolf Blitzer in rare form on FBI photos commentary: "They don't know if these are Americans or not Americans."

RT @SabrinaSiddiqui: Dude on CNN just observed that with the release of these photos, the suspects will probably change clothes. #analysis

So @cnn is basically all "We can't tell by these pictures if these are people, or foreigners."

The media is literally laying low concerned that he may be in the car and will shoot if he sees a target.

I'm sure there are some Russian languages translators around there...

Once I had the stupidity to take Russian in college. Couldn't get out of it fast enough. Very difficult language. I found Mandarin easier (!) tho didn't stick with that for long either. Russian is hard for us Romanesques to grasp.
