EAGLES OF DEATH
I wonder if they're gonna try to connect the death-related band to ISIS

Correction from earlier. We incorrectly called the band "Eagles of Death." Their correct name is ISIS of Death Metal.

There's often an outlet or two that's doing well while every else sucks. NBC comes to mind during the boston bombings a few years ago.

BBC keeps asking if these attacks are coordinated. Jesus Christ, dipshits, I think it's pretty safe to say they're fucking coordinated.

turn off the cable channels, at least in 18 minutes when the networks go live, they're better than what you'll get on cnn

Then just leave it without the implication. "Did they speak, could you tell what language"

he did the same thing when he was trying to imply that it could have something to do with "an american band playing there"

CNN is pure trash. Wolf Blitzer should do the world a favor and kill himself.
