CNN has it on breaking news..what this is considered national breaking news is beyond me. It seems to be just a car chase

Maybe there's just nothing "really" interesting going on, ya know? They have to have something to report. I just saw the car, it's a red/maroon Oldsmobile and I think that FNC says it is a 1980's model. There are no tires left, as the CHP threw down strips and blew the tires out. Also heard that they went over the bridge (I don't remember what bridge they said) at over 100mph at times. Police saying they will wait this one out as it appears that the people in the car have no intention of getting out. It looked to me as if there was someone/something in the backseat of the car.

We'll see...it could be just another CA car chase and more than likely it is. But with the LAX shooting yesterday, you just never know.

Besides, if we didn't speculate, what fun would we have? *grins*

Perhaps the suspects practice the Religion of Peace?

There is no such thing as 'just' these days. All news is breaking. I have noticed that the Fox 'alerts' are sometimes nothing more than a news conference about old news and they have come to tell us just that....."nothing new".

The media has a 24/7 slot to fill and 'no news' is not good news for them.
