CNN did not know in advance
CNN did not know in advance that bldg 7 would collapse. If they in fact reported its collapse earlier than it happened, then either they mis-identified another building that had already collapsed (obviously Aaron Brown is no expert on the various WTC building identities) or they in fact thought it had collapsed because in fact part of bldg 7 indeed had extensive damage. If one's angle of view is such that you see a building that has partially collapsed or has had extensive damage, then it is not entirely invalid to say it has collapsed (even if the whole structure is not collapsed). There are other possibilities too. For example, they may have overheard blathering idiots running around claiming it had collapsed and thus they were simply reporting what they heard in the hope to be the first to report it. When you consider that many WTC area buildings had collapsed or were extensively damaged, it is not conspiracy theory to mistakenly believe a particular building had collapsed and then by coincidence, it later collapsed because of its damage. I wish you Republcians would stop fueling these conspiracy theories and then pretend you weren't Republicans. These theories distract fromo the fact that Bush either throuogh incompetence or design allowed 911 to happen (because just before 911, Tenet and Clarke pounded on their desks and informed them that something big was about to happen, and Bush intentionally ignored them).
