    I think it was part of the news story. She was talking about what a suspect had written on Facebook. You can see it in context around 1:40 of this video >>

    I know what you are saying, but CNN is not an Adult xxx station.

    CNN needs to show more respect on what they repeat of what others say....
    Even though they are just repeating what someone else was saying from facebook.

    Why? Do you like your news censored? I hate when they tell you a story that someone said something offensive and don't actually tell you what it is. They warn you it was going to be offensive so if that type of thing bothers you then you can stop watching or mute your TV.

    I couldn't care less about bad language, while it's true that swearing constantly is no good it's also true that everyone (almost) swears regularly, and it's a problem thats given a disproportient amount of importance.

    "so let me get this straight, I can join the military, go to afghan and shoot a stranger in the head, but I can't drop an F-Bomb in front of aunt Mildred"

    Try to wake up people.
