MSNBC is still showing a repeat of their daily 5 PM Bush-bashing show and can’t be bothered by Breaking News.

Stunning. That’s as complete a catastrophic failure as I’ve ever seen. Good Lord, the things we take for granted. Prayers for all there.

Why don’t they stay on the story now????

I can only surmise that you mean CNN. If it doesn't have Clinton in it, you won't see it on the Clinton News Network.

Shep is dumber than a door knob. . . Thank God the school bus stopped before getting to the edge. Angels were watching over the babies on that bus. Praises to the driver for getting them off safely.

I am amazed at just how STUPID Shepard Smith and the other reporters are.

Me, too!

I can NOT believe this!

Children were on the bus coming back from a field trip! Thank the Lord they got out! It was the first thing we noticed; the back doors were open!

This is a heavily travelled bridge! ARe the Twins here tonight? This is really, really bad.

Just yesterday a bridge under construction collapsed in California.

Friday, a motorist in Massachusetts was crushed by a drainage gate on a highway.

I suppose it's all coincidences, but still it struck me as a little spooky.

Would they strike the Congressional District of the first Muslim Congressman?

The bridge before...

Thanks for the "before" picture -- it's such a massive thing, it's hard even to take in the whole from Fox -- their camera's not panning wide enough. God help those people!

Channel 5 is showing the bus.

It’s on the road in one piece.

Haven’t heard anything about the kids though.

You can see it on one of the bridges on Foxnews if the camera goes over it. I saw it and it was in one piece.
