McClatchy picks up where Shep with his 'everyone is armed on a military base' line left off:

McClatchy: Gunmen with M-16s kill at least 7 at Fort Hood in Texas

Um, there doesn't appear to be a source on the M-16s. That means they could be AR-15s. Also, based on the media's record on firearm identification they wouldn't know a Red Ryder from a Barrett.

Some good news: KCEN is reporting that Ft. Hood emergency sirens have ceased.

Yes, every time Duh Media says M-16s, makes me think 'or AR-15s'.

Most of the time, this document seems to be their source of info:
