Police Press Conferences Never Start On Time

[SoCalDavidS]

The one in Boulder was supposed to start 50 minutes ago, and was delayed until 6:00 MST, then 6:30 MST, and now it's being delayed again.

Whenever I hear that one is coming up, I add 30-60 minutes to the quoted time.

Once it occurs, I'm sure they won't be able to answer any questions, and will give extremely limited information anyways.

MSM won't report what is already known through other online sources. At least 6 dead, including a police officer.

1. This delay is troubling

will start in two minutes - going to be bad - heard a cop is among the dead

[SoCalDavidS]

2. It Is Horrible

There are plenty of online sources that have been mentioning for the last 2 hours that an officer was killed, and that a total of 6 were killed.

I never look to MSM for news anymore. They usually have Breaking News hours after online outlets.

3. I'm thinking there's still

a lot they don't know. Developing situation, as they say.

4. I'd rather wait for the official report. Let them take the time to share accurate information.

[Wicked Blue]

5. They may be waiting to notify victims' families

before going on the air.

It would be horrifying to learn of a loved one's death on the TV news

6. Exactly. Thank you.

7. Police complained that false information is going around on social media.

The news should flat out tell them that's THEIR fault. Hold the fucking press conference!

[JI7]

10. Maybe they don't have all the info

and want to make sure things are accurate .

[malaise]

14. If they are multiple dead but no people injured then they know how many are dead

unless he killed people elsewhere

[NutmegYankee]

19. They clearly know but are withholding info such as number of dead.

Which will just make the conspiracy nuts go wild. Take the police officer killed, they could have confirmed that hours ago.

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

8. Fox 31 reports some sort of ceremony

To take officer killed to morgue?

[malaise]

9. On now - multiple people killed including a police officer n/t

[IcyPeas]

12. Weird they are not giving the number of fatalities

[malaise]

13. Very early in the investigation

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm that makes no sense - they must have an idea

[IcyPeas]

15. Yeah, they could say "at least X" number

Not a very informative presser. Something suspicious.

[SoCalDavidS]

16. I Know Their Politics Stink, But DM Is Saying 6 Dead nt

[JI7]

17. What is DM ?

[malaise]

22. Rachel has Kavanaugh on and both say this makes no sense

Public needs to now number killed and injured without names.

[JI7]

23. Rachel maddow ? she has supreme court justice Kavanaugh on ?

[gldstwmn]

20. The only person at the hospital is the shooter.

Everyone else is dead. This is horrifying.

[malaise]

11. No threat now - person of interest was injured and is in custody b/t

[likesmountains 52]

18. The DA said they are not saying how many dead because they are still contacting families.

What fucking difference does it make to some of you personally. Can you not sleep or carry on unless you hear the official tally? JFC...buncha vultures?

[gldstwmn]

21. They weren't asked for names.

They look incompetent with the answer they gave. Anyone who was around for the JonBenet case knows this department had credibility issues.

[likesmountains 52]

24. I have to disagree. They know how many are dead, they need to make sure families are notified.

What possible difference does it make to an observer to know the exact body count right now? And, honestly, Jon Benet was 30 years ago..hardly relevant to this current crop of officers I'd think.

[mucifer]

25. I agree. It is ok I believe if we find out tomorrow.

[likesmountains 52]

27. Thank you. I'm kind of sick over the "need to know" attitude here tonight...why really?

[mucifer]

28. I may get in trouble for saying this but why is Rachel spending the whole hour on this? She could

break in if they have more to say rather than rehashing the same we don't know over and over.

So much is going on in the world.

[likesmountains 52]

29. Not watching TV tonight. I detest the coverage of these events..rehashing the same old, when there

is nothing new to report.
