This so-called "news flash" is like watching the news out here in San Diego when it rains.

Nothing at all. It's raining, big deal.

From the article:
Currently, a piece of glass likely thousands of pounds heavy is situated above the minivan, creating a dangerous situation.

Thousands of pounds heavy . . . really emphasizes the heaviness.

While I will admit, it ain't "This just in, the president has been shot", someone driving a van into a news studio during a live broadcast is a bit more then "it's hot today" in Vegas in July.

Check out the clowns at the top of the live shot, cheering and screaming.

GOP taliban after the "liberal" media? Most likely.....
Even though media is corporate, thus not liberal, and abc is Disney, kinda lil' history of embracing fascism when it comes to ol' Disney, but don't tell GOPers either fact.

probably just wanting to do some last minute shopping. Thought it was a mall with a Pier 1 inside.

It was FOX News themselves that sent the van. They had to drum up some terror alert situations for their bosses in DC.
