'Breaking' means it's a newstory that they don't have all the info about yet.

Yes, but you'd think it would also have to be significant breaking news to warrant such a prominent mention on the front page of cnn.com.

Yeah, CNN's "Breaking news" is like GFY's "Drama" posts. Click, click, click.

They had inside connections confirming it but couldn't verify it enough to go on record. It's now looking pretty much confirmed and there is a hostage standoff that is about to bring this episode to a climax.

Seeing how people pretty much know that it's a good chance they're connected, yes.

ADL Colin 03-12-2005 10:08 AM

So the answer to my question is "yes".

"Nichols was arrested Saturday at the apartment complex that police had surrounded in Gwinnett County, north of Atlanta. A blue pickup truck matching the description of that belonging to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who was found slain was discovered at the complex."

MandyBlake 03-12-2005 11:32 AM

yeah i agree.
i could see it being breaking news if it DID have a connection with the courthouse shootings.

Kevsh 03-12-2005 11:35 AM

I see your point but it's significant because what they are saying is "the guy that Atlanta police shot tonight is NOT necessarily the murderer they are looking for"

For people in the Atlanta area who have a pyscho running around, this is relevant I think!!!
