Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

ban all 24-hour news channels

bring back print media

cnn has a video that says the crime scene was cleared for the landlord, who then let reporters in. It doesn't seem like the reporters had direct permission from police, so the landlord could be lying.

which would hopefully result in charges

ban all 24-hour news channels

bring back print media

preach

Hey, great, we got it cleared up!

anderson cooper seemed aghast while talking to his own cnn reporter who was in there. like he couldn't believe it had come to this.

As well he should!

news are vultures

Where's Hildy Johnson in all this?

idk if anyone here remembers the craig rabinowitz case but the parents of the victim lived across the street from us and when it happened the media swarmed our block trying to get statements from the neighbors and my mom told them that they should be ashamed and should respect the privacy of the family and that they're vultures and i remember the news guy looked really chastened. ironically (or whatever) someone v close to me is serving time and has become buddies w/ craig bc they're like 2 of the 3 or so only Jews in the facility.

I admit I lolled

freedom of speech how else are we going to True Detective all the clues and figure out the next attack /s

Nightcrawler was exactly the first thing this made me think of. I have to wonder how many people working in journalism have a nightly spank sesh watching that thing.

aside from the journalists disgracing themselves, this is another reminder that (most) landlords are scum

I wonder if the landlord is the only one who can be charged

I wouldn't be surprised if s/he charged for access

Was there police tape?

Sky News have previous when it comes to this sort of thing: 'We shouldn't really be doing this, I suppose.'

On live TV, a reporter used a crowbar to pry off plywood that had been put across the front door of Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik’s home

though it seems this was done with the landlord's permission.

CNN reporters outside San Bernardino killers' home says landlord was escorted away by law enforcement, put into unmarked vehicle

what happened to the 'third person' they had in custody? also, who was it who bought the firearms? they said they were legally purchased by someone who wasn't the shooter.

UPDATE 3:08: Here’s MSNBC’s statement on the matter. Take note of the boast about having the first “live shots from inside.”

MSNBC and other news organizations were invited into the home by the landlord after law enforcement officials had finished examining the site and returned control to the landlord. Although MSNBC was not the first crew to enter the home, we did have the first live shots from inside. We regret that we briefly showed images of photographs and identification cards that should not have been aired without review.

yeah this, my wife was speculating that the couple was taken hostage? madness

This is Just to Say

I have briefly shown
the ID cards
that were in
the apartment

and which
you were probably
hoping
to keep out of live shots

Forgive me
they were delicious
so newsworthy
and so interesting

shooter purchased the hand guns. they know who purchased the assault weapons and "want to question him/her," but they haven't said who this person is.

this is still so bizarre

Refugee debate is OVER

gun debate, eh we can't have that

family attorney is saying they had no links to terrorism and that coworkers 'made fun of his beard'. this was just on cnn in an infographic though so I don't know if they are actually making this horribly weak ass defense.

someone tell ben carson this woman wasn't a refugee

Doesn't 'refugee' just mean 'somebody from a different country'? </bencarson>

actually it comes from the latin fugee, meaning overrated rap act

ben carson: "you don't have to live like a refugee"

"which I hear is quite nice, actually"

"“There were a lot of questions drawn with Sandy Hook and whether or not that was a real incident or not,” Mr. Chesley told reporters alongside family attorney Mohammad Abuershaid."

oh jesus

who is this chesley fool

also I'm having a hard time buying that the mother lived in the house and didn't notice they had a bomb factory in there. this is all pretty weak sauce.

a fucking sandy hook truther attorney

"the mother lived in the house"
source?

she lived upstairs, they've said this in a few places, I'll try to find one.

here you go:

http://www.sfgate.com/news/crime/article/The-Latest-Relative-shooter-was-bad-person-6675213.php?cmpid=brknow

"Mohammad Abuershaid and David Chesley, who represent Syed Farook's family, say Farook's wife, Tashfeen Malik, wore a veil that covered her face and didn't drive. The couple opened fire on a holiday party of Farook's co-workers, killing 14 people.
They say Farook's mother lived with the couple but she stayed upstairs and didn't notice they had stockpiled 12 pipe bombs and well over 4,500 rounds of ammunition."

if my mother or mother in law lived with me she'd be so fucking nosey I'd be lucky to hide a sex toy, let alone 4,500 rounds of ammo in my APARTMENT

huh "stayed" upstairs is a bit different than "lived" upstairs fwiw
