I woke up this morning around 7:00, 8 eastern and made my coffee and set down and looked through the "news feed" aggregation sites on my phone.

20 dead on Orlando club shooting. I dig a little further

Drudge had linked to the UK Daily Mail, quotes from LE, details, numbers , mention of ties to Islamic terror

I flip to the various news sites

MSNBC, nothing , not a word at 8:00 E

NBC , nothing

CNN and ABC have is splashed all over , not calling it potential Islamic terror

MSNBC TV, experts calling a "disturbed individual"

NYT at 8:30e, no mention of the FBI quote

FAR and away the most direct and informative piece I could find at some 4 or 5 hours after the act comes from the foreign press w quotes from the FBI and LE on the scene as 'leanings to radical Islamic terrorism', others were scrubbing the news for what can only be called a politically motivated intent to mislead and shape the narrative
