CNN needs to retract their statement on 'Right-Wing Extremists' Could Be Behind Marathon Bombing. This is sickening and down right dirty journalism. Shame on the network and those who continue to watch.
right wing tea party types , number 1 suspect!
We should refrain from blaming a group or people before we know the facts,folks.
