Read by anchor on MSNBC from the statement.

Seems like a live feed update:

(62,683 posts)Didn't CNN erroneously report something kind of big not too long ago? I don't recall what it was, but they jumped the gun and had to apologize. You'd think they'd learn.

(3,660 posts)How about we just wait for the people in charge of the investigation to come on Teeeebbeeee and tell us in their own words that an arrest has been made. I am sure that will still leave all the right-wing vengeful wacko's plenty of time to start harassing all foreign ethnicity groups.

May be a test of their mental reflexes.. as least.
Hell, I hope they are trying everything in their power to pick up a lead.

(1,965 posts)The misinformation in this case is crazy. There was a bomb at JFK library, then, no bomb. There were 3 other bombs found, then only 2. A third device was found and blown up by bomb squad, NOT! The 8 yo boy was waiting for his father to cross finish line, but father didn't run in race. WTF?
gateley
(62,683 posts)it takes a while to sift through the facts.
I always assume the initial reports are "subject to change".
This isn't the first time CNN jumped in too early, though. Kudos for the other news organizations for showing restraint.

Wow, of all these mainstream outlets Fox has got to be the WORST offender of 'em all. For now I'm monitoring Boston area media like Boston Globe and WBZ radio. I think they have the best live-and-on-the-ground coverage.
