CNN cut from Times Square 'bomb' coverage to Larry King?
They said international viewers would continue seeing the live coverage. WTF? Americans don't get coverage of a possible bomb in NYC while other countries do?

Now MSNBC has coverage, BTW.

1. The coverage of this thing is very weird , like they are intentionally playing it down.

3. MSNBC says there is black powder and propane tanks in the car they care currently investigating
Earlier I had read (in Latest Breaking News) it was a SUV. Now it seems to be a car.

I wonder if at first everybody down played it because it was not thought to be real but it is turning out to NOT be a dud.

7. I only check it for breaking news, but it seems that is no longer their thing
MSNBC is still doing live coverage. I think it is Brian Williams doing the commentary but I have not seen a face for the person speaking.

I only turned over to look for the coverage after seeing the story in the LBN here.
