The debris has been taken to Reunion island, a nearby French department

No doubt they have excellent seminars in Proust and French post-modernist literature.

It’s not to soon to tell according to an MSNBC expert … the debis doesn’t appear to be from a 777 but suspected it is possibly from a Yemeni plane that disappeared in 2009. Sorry I’m a bit fuzzy on the details and will try to follow up with a link.

Silly me … I didn’t anticipate CNN breathless, factless wall-to-wall coverage quite so quickly.

Hey, maybe it’s from Amelia Earhart’s plane…

“It is way too soon to say whether or not it is MH370.”
So then it’s way too soon to be breaking news, or at best about a 10 second “plane debris has been found on an island and is being investigated”. Done. I see no indication if it was even from a commercial jet (that would be potential breaking news).

Must’ve been caught in a temporal vortex and came back from the Delta Quadrant.

…told CNN “It is way too soon to say whether or not it is MH370.”

Just got this image of everyone at CNN closing their eyes real tight, crossing their fingers and muttering “please, please, please”

I hope I live long enough to see American Pickers work their way across CNN’s abandoned, junk-filled newsroom to find a ancient, shriveled Wolf still living in an old vending machine…

Ok, if it turns out that most of the passengers of the plane actually survived the crash, and are living on the island, but they are actually DEAD, then I will absolutely freak out.

Went right through one and popped out into the past, before the plane had crashed, into the middle of a sharknado. Or it could have. I’m just putting it out there.

“Tell Ron to speculate who’s driving the car.
Ron, speculate on who’s driving the car.
Uh…we believe the driver may be on drugs. He’s probably 6’7”, 6’8". But a skinny 6’7", 6’8", about one-sixty. He may have a hostage or two. Uh…we don’t know. He could have something…"
