    But we need to race each other to be the first to find incorrect information on twitter and post it, because,,,uh,,,because, well...to show we're faster than the media at posting bad info.

    Yeah, media reporting is ****ty.

    UPDATE: Fort Hood's Directorate of Emergency Services has an initial report that a shooter is dead but this is unconfirmed.

    The injured personnel are being transported to Carl R. Darnall Medical Center and other local hospitals. Numerous law enforcement agencies are in support and on the scene. The number of injured are not confirmed at this time. No further details are known at this time.
    The post is currently still on lock down.

    Christ, they got the shooter's name wrong, again? Or even if it is right, don't twitter a name like that, especially when UNCONFIRMED. Fort Hood has like 100,000 people.
