I've bumped this story up with an update. Title has been edited.
Original post:
How did they catch the New York bomb suspect? Today's Quickie:
Via Gawker:They intercepted his call reserving a plane ticket to Dubai; authorities nabbed him. [WCBS]
We didn't hear a whole lot about that, did we? But we did get a critical earful about Miranda rights. But not a whole lot of kudos about how-- within what, 53.5 hours?-- they captured the bad guy.
That was today's Quickie. Was it good for you?
Gawker UPDATE:
Yesterday the above story was scrubbed. But why? Gawker had screen shots of related headlines. Today they report:
According to WCBS, they simply got caught up in the frenzy of breaking news and "inadvertently" put in an unconfirmed detail. There is a problem with this account: The detail about the Army Intelligence planes was featured prominently in the title of the originally article. Clearly, the line wasn't "inadvertently included"—it was put in and deliberately promoted. After all, it was the most eye-catching detail of the story.
