CNN’s Big Flub
Let he who has never made a nail bomb and thrown it into a crowd cast the first stone.

Yesterday, CNN tweeted out a story that sounded more like a trailer to a Hollywood coming-of-age film than a domestic terror incident.
It described “two Pennsylvania teenagers” who entered New York on what “could’ve been a normal day enjoying the abnormally warm weather” before their lives “drastically changed” after throwing a bomb into a crowd.
Hours later, CNN deleted the tweet, accepting that it had “failed to reflect the gravity of the incident.”...........Along with the Covington kids and the “mostly peaceful protest” during the BLM riots, this story joins the Mt. Rushmore of great CNN moments.
