This morning, CNN took a break from its Ebolathon to mention that Hurricane Ana is getting close to Hawaii, only the loop footage they were playing clearly showed a storm bearing down on...Bermuda. Srsly, CNN?
 
Re: Headline News Thread

Yeah I was at the bar tonight for happy hour and thought I was going nuts. I kept thinking to myself, "I thought this was in Hawaii... Huh guess I need to pay more attention to the news."

Glad to find out I wasn't going insane. Man, CNN is steaming pile of sheet.

This sucks. Virgin Galactic SS2 crashes on test flight.

Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo rocket plane exploded and crashed during a powered test flight on Friday, resulting in one fatality and one injury, authorities said.

The explosion occurred after the plane was released from its WhiteKnightTwo carrier airplane and fired up its rocket engine in flight for the first time in more than nine months.

"During the test, the vehicle suffered a serious anomaly resulting in the loss of the vehicle," Virgin Galactic said in a statement. "The WhiteKnightTwo carrier aircraft landed safely. "Our first concern is the status of the pilots."

Jesse Borne, an officer at the California Highway Patrol, told NBC News that there was one fatality and one major injury.
