New Yorkers on CNN bomb threat

(24 Oct 2018) A bomb mailed to the offices of CNN prompted the evacuation of the Time Warner Center in Manhattan on Wednesday, leaving many workers shocked and frazzled. Lisa Dalsimer, who works at the Hearst building just two blocks south, says she couldn't stop thinking about her family.  "I felt really close to it and thinking about,whether we needed to get out," she said. Edward Wiezzorek, a consultant at CNN was unfazed by the evacuation.  "I'm sure it was just for newsworthiness because if they really wanted to hurt somebody, they would have made it explode when they opened it. It didn't blow up," he said. Officials confirmed the package contained a crude pipe bomb similar to the ones targeting Hillary Clinton and sent to the residence of former president Barack Obama in Washington, DC, earlier Wednesday.
