Interesting News Info...

terrier3 — Sat, 28 Nov 2015 02:54:38 GMT

I noticed that a 24 hour news station stopped coverage of the CO. clinic attack.

So then I got curious and have scouted out some news websites,,,Drudge Headline: Black Friday mayhem, people fighting over bargains; NY Post: shooting at bottom of page; WaPo and NYT - top story; HuffPo - top story; Breitbart & The Blaze - top story

OK, speak up! What's your point? Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Calm down.

How are Breitbart and The Blaze spinning it? Not surprised there's no coverage on Fox.

Some sites aren't covering this at all.

Just informational...

I'm not calm because this is personal for me...CNN has referenced my friend's murder at lest 3 times already...it brings back horrible memories.

Breitbart (who financially backed the PP "documentary tapes") has a statement from the leader of that propaganda group decrying the shootings.

Hah! I noticed the same thing...I switched over to al jazeera to find out the gunman had been caught.

The news media gets to decide what we want to see????

It will be interesting to see what Ted C says-

Rachel had a deeply disturbing segment the other day regarding him.

I'm sorry for your loss @terrier3! It's hard enough to hear of these events let alone losing a loved one to yet another senseless act of violence. I'm trying not to sound trite...but truly, you and your friends be be held in my heart and prayers. My sympathies.

This what they all need to be reporting:

JUST IN: Ofc. Garrett Swasey, 44, was killed as he responded to call for support during the active shooting siege at a Planned Parenthood facility in Colorado, Univ. of Colorado at Colorado Springs says.

NBC News

I am amazed and surprised that posters here are downplaying the fact that an officer was killed and many others injured protecting the clinic.

The guy is in custody..not much left for tonight.

This is a holiday weekend and the networks are shortstaffed...so kudos to the ones who stayed with the story until the shooter was in custody.

it was on Fox since it started with breaking news segments after regular programming started. They stated there would be no further news at last session from police.

A Police Officer and two civilians were killed in a standoff since this this afternoon...it's definitely news worthy.
