Jiverly Voong. That's the name of the shooter in New York. CNN has said they won't say

[RB TexLa]

his name yet. In other words, they feel we don't deserve to know it yet.

1. nothing wrong with what CNN is doing

they're actually being more responsible than other media outlets about making sure their information is accurate.

5. MSNBC is not responsible?

They've identified the shooter. I don't see why there is a need for so much caution about the shooter. Caution about the victims I understand.

2. We still don't know if he had any connections to anyone there, though.

3. Like the reporter last week who was showing how easy it was to cross the border

said in his report that he would not tell us where it was...for OBVIOUS reasons...and then signed off by saying.. "this is "xxxxxxx", reporting from Nuevo Laredo" :rofl:

4. No info on this guy.

Nothing comes under that name on google except today's news.

[spotbird]

6. The name is Jiverly A. Wong. nt

[Renew Deal]

8. Pretty much nothing for that too.

[TreasonousBastard]

7. Why is it so important to know this guy's name now? Won't...

those of us who have no connection to this shooting be inundated with everything we could possibly imagine about him soon enough?

And do we really need to know?

9. Indeed.
