Video Captures the Sound of the Explosion

A new video surfaces of the bombs going off at the Boston Marathon. Although you don't see the explosion, the sound gives you a good idea just how big it was. ​

Here is the chilling video:​

"Running with Stories that are not Perfectly Sourced"

NBC News Terrorism Expert Michael Leiter was asked why all the conflicting reports i.e. Why did CNN screw up?

He blamed it on reporters "Running with Stories that are not Perfectly Sourced"

Here's what he said about the wrong reports of an arrest that was made:​

Was CNN Wrong?! Updated -Yes they Were!

CNN has been going on and on saying that an arrest has been made in the Boston Marathon Bombings.​

John King has been on the air reporting saying that his sources confirm that an arrest was made.​

While CNN was reporting and arrest, a number of other media outlets (NBC, ABC) were reporting no arrests were made. 

While CNN was still going live from the scene, King stepped out of frame and could be heard talking on his phone.​

It was obvious that he was asked if his info was solid? King could be heard "My source confirms it, Fran's (Townsend) sources confirms...but I'll double back....I'll double back."

Shortly after that call CNN started backpedaling on air. They reported that they could have a suspect in custody, but not an been officially arrested. 

Then Former FBI Asst. Director Tom Fuentes went on the network and said his sources tell him that "no arrest have been made" and that at this point they don't even have the suspects name. ​

If CNN was this wrong with their initial reports of an arrest, it could be a huge black eye to the new Jeff Zucker regime. ​

Stay tuned....​

Update: John King has returned to the air to say that there is "no arrest."

Uh oh...

Arrest has been Made or is About to be Made

Depending on which media outlet you believe either an arrest has been made in the Boston Marathon Bombing.... or an arrest is going to be made at anytime.​

CNN's John King appears to be the first to report that investigators have a suspect.​

Some media are reporting that are suspect ​is in custody, while others are saying the arrest is "imminent."

The Tweet above shows that WCVB is saying both things. So they are half wrong and half right at the same time.​

LA Station Evacuated after Bomb Threat

With tensions high you can expect the idiots to come out of the woodwork.

Last evening, shortly after 6PM the LA Police got a call saying there were bombs planted at the KTLA studios in Hollywood.

Cops say  the caller told them he was “going to detonate” three devices, that had been planted in the building.

It didn't take no for the LAPD to determine that it was a hoax, but employees, including news staff from KTLA were evacuated as a precaution.

The LAPD bomb squad and dogs searched the area and nothing suspicious was found.

Staff was allowed back in the building around 8:30 PM. 

Did Time go Too Far with Cover Photo?

One look at the photo and it tells you everything you need to know about the Boston Marathon bombings.​

It was a horrific attack against our way of life.

But, by choosing to put a bloodied child on the cover, did Time go too far?

Was the kid's picture used purely for shock value? Or was it the one picture that told the story?

It is likely that the use of this picture will be debated about.​ How would you have felt if it was your kid?

The one thing for certain, is people will be talking about it....and maybe that's what Time was going for. You can leave your thoughts in the comments below (no need to register) just type what you have to say and hit Post. ​

Taking Over in Fresno
