Well...OK, they’ve got to have the facts straight so at the very least they don’t wind up looking like idiots.
But I am suspicious of the ideological motives of the group culture at CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, Al-Jazeera, Radio Havana, Gaza TV, etc. A bomber of color who is at war with Western civ doesn’t fit their template of what constitutes the greatest danger to society.
Doesn’t really matter what their template is. Once the suspect is arrested, he is who he is. Of course, if its a Muslim, they’ll start with the “religion of peace” crap. If its a white male, then he’s instantly anti-government / homophobic / racist, and whatever else. But we already know that.
Regardless, they’re (CNN) already looking liked idiots for falsely reporting an arrest.
