Trump said at the press conference his generals advised him it was an attack / munition explosion & left it at that...guess we'll hear more later.

I REMEMBER another "explosion"...in 1983..that killed 241 American men & about a hundred more, and wounded God only knows how many more. FVCK EM.
I later served with some boys that were there...unreal stories I heard. They CANT be paid back enough for that shit in MY book.
I HOPE it was Israel. GOOD.

WOW. I was on Parris Island that night- we thought FOR SURE we were going to war with someone.
I loved Ronald Reagan...was proud to have served undr him..but one of the few things I SORELY disagreed & NEVER understood was him making the Marines go without mags or ammo in the weapons whilst in Beruit. NO soldier ANYWHERE should EVER be under those orders.

While CNN is the worst, they don't lie about everything. When reporting about some actual event that is not related to politics, Trump, etc. they can actually offer some factual info. Specifically in this case I've sen other news sources make the same or substantially the same quote.
Now, if whatever they are reporting on is remotely related to Trump, Republicans, or anything remotely political, all bets are off. I've been calling them the communist news network since at least the early 90s if not earlier. (AKA Clinton news Network). Any reporting in the same article referencing Trump and his response is, as a matter of course, suspect.

Respectfully disagree.
Cases in point: the settlement last week of the kid they slandered who did nothing but smile at the fake Vietnam vet, toothless "native" American.

The college frat that supposedly raped the stripper but didnt really.
Any/every story on guns/gun violence/assault weapons ect.
Judge Kavanaugh
The Reublican Party
The Tea Party
I got a list off the top of my head, a mile long. I cant see where they dont skew EVERYTHING. They are for the most dramatic, extreme, wild,
crap they can report. I hope they paid the kid MILLIONS.

Looks like fireworks to me (or small arms munitions?). Second video I've seen where you can clearly see/hear the snaps/flashes of things cooking off before the big boom.

And here from a distance, but you can see the sparks/flashes at the base of the smoke before more fire flares up, then kablooey.

Nothing you listed goes against what I said. I agreed when the subject was political/ideological in the least bit.
Where I said that they don't always lie is in actual factual, non political, non Trump, non ideological reporting. Ie: "There was a large explosion in Beirut." That is an actual factual report, even though it is from CNN. Their quote of a Lebanese source as to the nature of the explosion, is also one of those actual factual non-ideological reports.
