It was when I first realized that an unacceptable proportion of news broadcasters were morons.
We were watching PBS for some reason, when the second plane hit the tower. And a reporter said, I swear, “I want to caution everyone not to jump to conclusions. At this point, there is no evidence that this is an attack.”
No, it could be just a coincidence that two passenger jets hit the same structure on the same day within minutes of each other. Sure. That makes perfect sense. Thanks, PBS, for your professional restraint and expert analysis.
Naturally, no one corrected him.

Yeah. Because by the time we knew it was an attack (the 2nd plane), we all pretty much “knew” who the perpetrators were going to be. And squish moral-free PBS reporters don’t want evil bigoted Americans to come to the conclusion (which was right by the way) that they were going to come to.
