"Just wondering why a bomb going off at a college football game isn't worth at least a blurb."
On the morning of the first London bombings, I happened to be watching CNBC-Europe -- and they reported it as "multiple explosions caused by power surges - terrorism not involved" for at least 3 hours before someone finally let the cat out of the bag.
Governments and/or media (I won't get into conspiracy thinking -- I WON'T!!) sure seem to have a policy of trying real hard to bury initial reports like this.
(I look for a future headline something like: "Nuclear detonation in Midtown Manhattan -- terrorism not suspected.")
More like "Large spike in background radiation in New York area", or "Mysterious flash seen near New York City."
This is weird. Unless it truely ended up being a non-event, such as a gas main explosion with no fatalities.
Remember, the press reported rumors as fact during Katrina, they are probably a little gun shy to report too fast now.
