Screw the NY Post. They had people believing that 12 people had died. FOR HOURS.

Canada has tabloids, right? NYPost is a tabloid. I know they pretend to be real, but... yeah. People in this country know what it is.

I call BS on the photos. I don't think someone with a bomb puts orange juice in their backpack side pocket. That instead shows they were using it for backpack purposes, being casual, getting some liquid refreshment. I saw better guesses on reddit.

I'm not just talking about NY Post. CNN, a major news network, has handled this situation just as poorly.

It's like they post whatever they hear, don't bother to check if it's true or not, and simply say "DEVELOPING STORY" to cover their butts.

Yeah, CNN sucks. I'd stick with the 3 networks, ABC, NBC, CBS and not the "new" cable news. And respected papers, like NY Times, LA Times, whatever. The 3 networks did not report the fake arrest story yesterday.

The only section of the Post which isn't trash is page 6. The rest is not even suited for lining bird cages...

I thought CBS did, for a short period of time. I was @ work, following tweets and I saw many tweet that cbs was reporting an arrest. It seemed like even AP was and NBC and PBS were out there all alone saying no arrest.
