Brian Williams returns to MSNBC to lead breaking news coverage of the Paris attacks.

- **Time:** 14:20–20:39
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/562-blotto/chapter/lax-eyewitness-discrepancies-medical-transport-logistics.md

Conflicting eyewitness reports from the LAX shooting are analyzed, noting discrepancies in the shooter's clothing and the presence of police helicopters before the event. Questions are raised about why victims were transported to UCLA Medical Center, 400 minutes away in traffic, rather than closer facilities. Observations of triage areas and video footage lead to claims that the emergency response appeared staged or inconsistent with a real mass casualty event.

### Scripted Language Analysis, "Belongings" and "Hit the Deck"

- **Episode:** [562: Blotto](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/562-blotto.md)
- **Published:** 2013-11-03
- **Time:** 20:40–24:38
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/562-blotto/chapter/scripted-language-analysis-belongings-and-hit-the-deck.md

The use of specific terminology by LAX eyewitnesses, such as "belongings," "be screened," and "hit the deck," is criticized as sounding scripted rather than natural. An anecdote about the television show "Swamp Thing" illustrates how writers often force actors to use unnatural slang like "blotto." The analysis suggests that the language used in news interviews often mirrors law enforcement or cinematic scripts.

An interview with an eyewitness named Jose is deconstructed, highlighting logical inconsistencies in his account of the shooter's movements between Terminal 3 and Terminal 4. The timing of the LAX event is noted to coincide with the beginning of November "sweeps week" for television networks. CNN's wall-to-wall coverage is described as a strategic move to capitalize on the drama for ratings.

These include a student shot through a wall in an adjacent theater and a neighbor, Yesenia Lujan, whose apartment was used by SWAT for surveillance.
