That was claimed yesterday, but, outside of Murdoch-world, the cops say they have nobody in custody http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22171684
I've read that the AP says the Saudi in question has been cleared as a suspect, but his apartment was searched. http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2013/04/feds_seek_suspects_motive_in_b.html My information was incomplete but a search warrant was issued and his apartment searched as mentioned above. Also, the original article I posted has been edited to say the man was recently ruled out. *edit* Just trying to clear up any confusion I've unintentionally inserted into this thread.
I did wonder why nobody else carried the story... http://gawker.com/5994810/the-vanis..._source=gawker_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow
Well, sorry guys. I done goofed. I should have been more wary considering the forum I found those articles linked on. I am very interested in finding out who did this and jumped the gun. At least the man's good name has been cleared.
And now the Westboro idiots are planning on picketing the funerals of the victims. (Pick your news source.)
Dear local and national media, Please stop making sh*t up and reporting it as news. We are on edge enough as it is. Thank you, The City of Boston.
^^^ At least you don't have Pat Collins. He's been on the air on NBC Channel 4 in DC for years and HE always seems like he's on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Every story he covers is like the end of the fucking world, and he delivers his "reports" with overly dramatic histrionics, complete with pregnant pauses for added effect. He truly is a douche to watch and I cringe every time they switch over to him.
Wolf Blitzer drives me crazy, too. He's like a carnival barker. These guys need to brush up on their Walter Cronkite.
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57580370/teen-stunned-at-portrayal-as-boston-bombing-suspect/ The NY Post's less than objective reporting has caused this teen a lot of grief.
And tomorrow's story is here. A shootout at MIT with one officer killed, followed by a major shootout in Watertown Massachusetts with the perps carjacking a police SUV and one of the gunmen tossing grenades. The police told everyone to stay off their cellphones for fear of detonating unexploded bombs. At least one of them is in custody.
Local Boston station... The Watertown suspects are also the Boston Marathon bombing suspects. One suspect killed, second suspect at large. NBC : Source says pressure cooker found at Watertown crime scene And just over the police radio, there is a device with wires in Watertown. The police conference it's insane, Watertown is believed to be connected. Will no admit if suspects are alive or dead.
