CNN Link to Recording
Ok. So, you have a recording of some gun fire that came from an anonymous source. You admit that you haven't confirmed your sources and verified the information. Yet, they play it nonstop and interview all kinds of ancillary people who weren't even fricking there!
It's really not news anymore. It truly is Infotainment.

CNN cannot independently verify the authenticity of the tape and has asked the FBI for confirmation of their interview with the man who made the recording.

Jesus I think CNN just got trolled harder than Sum Ting Wong....
That sounds like those videos you make where the computer speaks all the narrative.

And for the record, "CNN cannot independently verify..."
I remember, back in the day, when journalism would pause right there.

When one has an agenda, one begins by stating the predetermined conclusion, and then one works backward to construct the events which will support one's predetermined conclusion.
Welcome to the world of CNN, and sadly, the state of the mainstream media in America circa 2014.

During the pause in shooting you can actually hear the cop say something diabolically clever, "No, Mr Brown, I expect you to die...mwahahahahahahahah!"

wtf the guy's friend is some cam girl who he is paying so she will talk to him......And he gets this money because he doesn't have to pay for his own food/rent/cellphone/healthcare and who knows what else..
This Ferguson thing has made me realize just how fricked this country is. I mean jesus, stupidity is out of control and is running rampant.

I guess we are very fortunate as the timing of the gunshots could have been much worse.

sounds like it came from someone playing GTA
I will probably laugh harder when I find out how much CNN paid for it.

The election were concerning but this bullshite makes aware of a whole new level of absurdness.
I admit I'm a bit naive.

CNN is stooping down to MSNBC's level now.

CBS has been just as bad. For some reason, I watched their news at the day that the autopsy report revealed that Michael Brown had not been shot in the back. That information was important, because it discredited the comments made by Dorian Johnson, who had said that Brown was shot while walking away.
One would've expected CBS would at least mention this discrepancy. NOPE. CBS harped on the fact that an unarmed teenager was shot 6 times, and that their was no gunpowder residue on Brown's body. Not one mention of the finding that all the shots came from the front, which would strongly suggest that Johnson and others had LIED.
In fact, watch any news report on this story. What you will hear ALMOST EVERY TIME are the words.....unarmed, teenager, shot 6 times, by a white cop. I guarantee you that the fix is in, and the media is a willing participant.
