I haven't had time to read the entire thread yet, so maybe this has already been reported.
BUT....CBS has already pulled their original report labeling the soldier as "black muslim". He is now being described only as "an engineering seargent."

Good catch. Just one more reason FR is so cool, and one more reason why copying article text as it exists on a web site at the time of the post is SOOOO important (one more addition to the "fair use" argument).

Obviously someone "described" the suspect as a black Muslim to the reporter.

How many other times has an FR poster caught the PC press sanitizing its copy? Very, very many.
