Hummm.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was CNN that setup this bomb scare.
Think about it, what other kind of company has correspondents all across the US?
They have a studio, and they are certainly capable of making their own studio prop devices.
They contact correspondents in the cities where dummy bombs are going, so those correspondents know when and where to drop their studio props to keep it all well timed.
Then, there's the case of CNN posting 'evidence' as fast as they did, considering it IS evidence, they wouldn't be anywhere close enough to get those neat side by side photos of the device, unless it was made and taken BEFORE the incident occurred.
They knew it wasn't real, we know this because of these photos as well, if it was real, who the fuck is going to stand around taking selfies with a bomb that could go off at any moment?
No, I think Hilldawg had CNN to stage this shit.
