Went over to CNN's site, they are showing "1 dead" but right beside that headline is a quote from a witness "there are a lot of dead people".
They just don't want it to be true so badly. For the last 30 minutes the fox news website headline has said TERROR ATTACK' IN BARCELONA - At least 13 reported dead, bodies in street after van strikes plaza crowd
For the last 30 minutes the yahoo main page headline has said "Several injured in Barcelona crash" with no mention whatsoever of a terror attack and as I typed this out they literally just added "feared dead" and still no mention of anything terror related

Oh come on, in all fairness to CNN, they want to get their facts straight.

Isn't it odd how CNN will leave skid marks to run with a story based on maybe one anonymous source.......who sometimes got THEIR information from another anonymous source...............but, suddenly, the desire to be first in reporting dies when the narrative is a problem?

In eastern Spain (that area that wants to become a separate nation, Catalonia) the cities' main downtown street is "La Rambla" which is the walking street where folks go after their siestas to have drinks, dinner, and to spend their evenings.
Barcelona's has been engulfed by the city, but all the other smaller cities also have functioning La Ramblas.
And, yes, they are easy targets.

That's about as disingenuous of a headline you will ever see

Anyone notice how this thread is almost completely devoid of liberal posters?
They're all down below though

If there's beef infected with ecoli, all the beef is recalled so no chance of letting people become sick. But when it comes to Muslim, we don't use the same logic to protect the public.
I'm all for diversity. But at what point do people accept that these muslims don't like to live with us.

I will not disagree with you!

perhaps its due to their agreement to forced upon people in airports (the only time I watch CNN)?
That international terrorism reports are bad for business of the travel (which begs the question, why even have the news on at all?)

I wonder if this might expedite Barcelona's effort to leave Spain and (presumably) the EU?
It sounds like this guy isn't a recent refugee but still....

My buddy was just over there and told me Spain is immune from the type of terror attacks that occur in Europe
We are all "the people of the cross".... Spain is not immune.

Also 13 dead, and 50 injured (10 of those critical)
Not sure how much has been posted, but this is from CNN and Fox News

Will this affect the vote in the Catalan independence referendum in a few months?
