Persons of interest in Boston Bombing: “We didn’t do it!”
A Boston track coach and his teenage student are denying their involvement in the deadly Boston Marathon bombings.
The men stepped forward to identify themselves after photos of them wearing backpacks went viral online Wednesday.
The Smoking Gun identified the men as Yassine Zaimi, a 24-year-old track coach and Salaheddin Barhoum, a 17-year-old high school runner who works at Subway and posted photos to Facebook of his trip Monday. They were on Boylston Street, they say, to watch the race.
Fertilizer Plant Explosion in Texas Kills Up to 15, Injures Over 100
Almost 20 years after a fire killed 25 children in David Koresh’s Branch Davidian cult in Waco, Texas, a fertilizer plant exploded near Waco, killing up to 15 people and injuring over 160. The plant, in operation since the 1950′s, supplied fertilizer to farms.
A resident sitting in his pickup truck near the plant captured the fire and the horrific explosion on his cell phone. The man’s daughter, who was also in the truck, can be heard screaming in terror.
The explosion occurred as firefighters battled a roaring fire at the plant for over 30 minutes. The blast leveled nearby homes and a school in West, TX, a small farming community with a population of 2,500. Elderly residents of a nearby retirement home were evacuated safely. The shock waves measured 2.1 on the Richter scale, a machine that measures the magnitude of earthquakes.
CNN Fumbles the Ball Again
From CNN Anchor John King reading the news off his cell phone, to bungling contributor Fran Townsend citing sources who probably don’t exist, CNN dropped the ball again.
Yesterday, CNN reported that an arrest had been made in Monday’s bombings that rocked the Boston Marathon. 30 minutes later, the once mighty news leader retracted its report, leaving millions of viewers wondering if CNN still employs editors who fact check the news before it goes out over the air.
The media wants to know if these people are looting (Video)
The headline on the front page of MSN’s NOW website reads: “Are these people looting after the Boston bombings?” Isn’t it funny how the media approaches the despicable subject of looting differently when the looters are of a different race? If the people seen in this news footage ripping open boxes and walking away with armfuls of jackets and blankets aren’t looting, what are they doing? Listen to the news reporters describing the looting as “picking up” jackets and blankets.
“In the post-tragedy spirit of focusing on the best of humanity, we’d like to think they’re not actually stealing,” MSN NOW writes, as they pull the wool further over their eyes. The fact that the shameless thieves are looting while injured people writhe in agony just yards away from them makes their actions even more contemptible.
