NPR just reported on Tiller's murder. The report took less than 10 seconds.
His lawyer said that Tiller was shot at his church. They named the church.

That's all, folks.

1. In defense of NPR...

2. That's all they know right now. NPR has no money and there's probably

3. Kudos to them for not falling for the uber-speculation bullshit
like other "news" sources.

Report what you know, then STFU.

:thumbsup:
