"The media are ASSUMING it is a msg from the spree killer.."

I've been working at our cabin all day and have just recently come home and tried to catch up on the news.

I am assuming that noone has told the press that the message was left in the wooded area. Also, when I heard the message from Moose, he directed his commments to the person who left the message 'at' the Ponderosa - not 'near' the Ponderosa.

I am wondering why the media automatically assumed this message was from the shooter? Has anyone heard a reporter quote sources saying that it was?

I heard "at the Pondersosa" as well.....

the situation is differant if the note or whatever was found at the woods as opposed to the finding it in the restaurant...

I just can not imagine leaving a note that you want answered in the woods where it would probably not be found until the next day...and it was raining there, so the note might not be very readable after a night outside...

if they found a cell phone....a cheap one .....one that had no other info on it....that could be a possiblity...

frankly, I can not tell you what MY cell phone number is.....or my dtr's....the numbers are already in the phone so I never actually have to punch in numbers....

Well, I am now able to sort of answer my own question...

"I am wondering why the media automatically assumed this message was from the shooter? Has anyone heard a reporter quote sources saying that it was?"

CNN just reported 'inside sources' have confirmed that Moose was speaking directly to the shooter. So LE actually believes the note was from him. [Okee Dokee]
