A law enforcement source said there have been confirmed fatalities, but did not specify how many.

      I honestly think AI is already in charge of controlling the news and what gets pushed and buried….don’t think all media is in on it.

      **Submission Statement**

      If the crash in DC happened approximately 4 hours ago… how did CNN start reporting on it 8 HOURS AGO??

      That would’ve meant 3pm.

      Most news outlets have always had various story templates ready and waiting to be used in a given situation or scenario. All I can think here is that they likely had something like that, and maybe the database of forms was last saved 7 hours before the screenshot was taken, and whoever used that template (for lack of a better word), filled it in with the info for this event, forgot to make sure the timestamp was updated or just assumed it would be updated and didn’t check.

      I don’t know how else that could have happened.
