Suspected Austin bomber. . .
Innocent until proven guilty. . .
And we still have no idea how many bombs may be shipped, or if this suspect was working with anyone else.

This isnt even the same thing that the Trump campaign and Cambridge did.Triggered much?
No, just sick of people not being able to think and understand that everythign they read on breitbart or see on Fox News is fake. You are incapable of thinking apparently.

I am sorry you feel that way. I was unaware that someone had cornered the market on truth.

Suspected.
FFS state the facts, until it is announced by someone with authority to say, definitively that this guy, is in fact the bomber.

- they have. 2. facts aren't just facts because someone you see as having authority says so.

The police have not come out and said this is the guy (at least at the time of the post) the media found out the guys name somehow.
Um... yes that is how authority works. Someone or people have put some person into that position. Authority. . .

That's not how authority works, that's how society likes to make you think it works. Some random person says "authority" and you just accept it. That's really just marketing.

Media is authority just like anyone else. So there you go, you answered your own question. Some random authority figure that you do or do not recognize as authority for your personal purposes says that they know who it is.
All authority is at the basis of personal opinion and, often, determined solely by meeting personal goals.

What?!
OK so Trump has no authority to go to congress and ask them to declare war. . . The FBI has no authority to investigate national crimes.
The police have no authority to arrest someone they suspect of a crime. .

He has the POWER to do so. Authority is not the same as power. Power is taken, authority is granted.

@dustinb3403 it's interesting that you choose the president as an example when you just denied the governor's authority to name the bomber.
"Texas Governor Greg Abbot told Fox News that he lived with two flatmates in Pflugerville, about 20 miles north of Austin. "
