3. CNN-Certainly NOT News
The CNN talking heads may be one IQ point higher than the Faux talking heads.

5. Had a look to see the state of the union's headlines and Creepy Crawly was sooo wrong!
She said "state tv reports 34 dead". WRONG! It's over 150 now. Instantly went back to AJE.

Don't know why I wasted my time.

6. She was talking to a correspondent who said it, maybe she was
repeating what he said.

He wasn't trivializing it. He was talking about the atmosphere of where he had just been. There were nasses of people but they were very peaceful and more.
There were volunteers cleaning the streets and more kept pitching in. Some were directing traffic. I think some were passing out food/drinkl? I know they said some trained medical professionals were checking out people and helping those who needed some help.

The point was it wasn't an atmosphere of angst and anger at that point, it was a very upbeat atmosphere.
It was a good thing
