EDIT: The FBI has since corrected themselves and are now treating it as an act of terror.

The FBI is investigating the NO attack as an act of terrorism. This is how misinformation spreads.

The FBI is investigating the deadly New Orleans incident at an “act of terrorism,” the bureau said in a statement.

“This morning, an individual drove a car into a crowd of people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing a number of people and injuring dozens of others,” the FBI said in a statement. “The subject then engaged with local law enforcement and is now deceased. The FBI is the lead investigative agency, and we are working with our partners to investigate this as an act of terrorism.”

I guess all the "journalists" being on Bluesky isn't enough for it to not be filled to the brim with bullshit, too.

It makes it sound like the cops wouldn't have done anything if the guy hadn't brought the fight to them.
