« New York Times Ignores Guidlelines For Terror Group Fluff Piece | Main | The 64,000 Dollar Question »
Driscoll has rolling updates on what was first reported as a transformer explosion in NYC. It's now being termed a "steam pipe" explosion. But what caught my eye via Drudge was this picture. Everyone is taking video, or snapping photos with their cell phones.
I imagine they easily outnumber the journalists doing the same.

Waiting for Chertoff to say this is a terrorist attack and his gut was right after all.

Why does Dan have 'steam pipe' in quotes?
Does he think it was a terrorist attack but the government isn't telling us?
What a moron.

People are taking over as photojournalists because the media is compromised -- totally in coverup mode right now...
... this "explosion" was an aborted false flag attack (to be blamed on Iran) to get us into Martial Law.
I know this might be hard to believe, but another forum was talking this just 4 days before (on July 14th)...
