Right, they were talking about him a week ago. And unless something has changed in the last couple days, he is no longer a person of interest in the Boston bombing. Unless you’re a follower of Glenn Beck.
There were also reports Saturday, primarily out of the UK, that authorities are looking for a cell of at least 12 in and around New England. That kind of fizzled too. News services have been pretty unreliable in reporting the status of the case, as in with the issue of the incompetence of not understanding the difference between an uploaded youtube video and a linked-to video. Or in some cases, despite their using formerly reliable sources. (In the case of the errant NY Post photograph, it may have even been intentional.)
So the fact that nobody else has talked about it (particularly in the last 48 hours) is significant. “Breaking stories” can quickly become broken stories.
