MSM coverage is even worse than usual. Was Nancy Lanza a teacher at the school or not? [View all]

Minor point ... in view of the scope of the tragedy.... but it seems to me MSM/police would at least be able to determine this definitively by now.

ASK the surviving staff .

And if the answer is "no"... what was the shooter's "connection to the school"?
