It was 6.2 before, and Spanish sources are taking it to 4.7 from 4.8...

Also some sources that were reporting it happening at 1:00, now they are saying their news agency (europapress) has change the time to 12:08...

[somekindofsign]

I'm confused....did this earthquake happen or not?  :?

There´s no evidence at all yet.

[alive]

So US says 6.3....Spain says 4.7? No one felt anything?  They don't even know the right time?  What are they up to?

sorry for this but i laugh a little when i read in that page can you feel it? or something like that... reminds me to tito on twitter! LOL
so, nothing happen really?

[somekindofsign]

But it seems as there´s no insistence about it abroad Spain...
just the USGS triggered the alert, we reacted here, reported, just calls to authorities from people asking about the existence of it, no one felt nothing, no damages, media here played it down...
All the times reported have mergued into 12:08 now.

Both news about the 6.3 and 4,7 earthquake are spreading around the hispanic world (at least), both on media and social metworks, and people who heard 6,3 still don´t realize it´s not so. I´ve also readen apocalypthical comments on social networks... if this were true it would be possible, but rarely coincidential to say the least.

You tell me... I knew Liz Taylor is marrying Janet´s agent just surfing to know about the earthquake  :lol: I´ve been out this week... I guess you alredeady know about the Liz T thing...

We (Southamerica) had a 4,8 earthquake too, seconds after Admin posted it on here. I felt it.
USGS says it was 4,9. Local reports, 4,8.

There is something a bit strange to this story. Firstly I thought why would CNN report a story and not get the full facts, like the depth, before publishing and causing people to think it was far more serious than it actually was. But looking on the internet CNN seem to have a bit of an interest in earhtquakes. During the Haiti earthquake according to the Guardian, CNN had more coverage than any other news agency with seven reporters on the ground as well as ireports. Seems a bit much when you think the likes of the BBC had one reporter. Also on one of the articles CNN have regarding the spanish earthquake someone has mentioned that they had previously commented on the possiblity of tweets being sent out from someone at the epicentre and that could be sent out to those in the surrounding area that an earthquake was going to reach them soon. CNN apparently jumped straight on it and started moderating the comment. This could be coincidental but what are CNN up to?

I know some people think that some of these events aren't natural and are being driven by something else so I was going with that thought in mind that maybe CNN would know something. Personally I think its either a cheap shot to increase traffic to their site or poor journalism. However I'm still curious as to why their heavily moderated someone's theory that its possible to tip someone off about an earthquake. As for where they would get their info from I don't know buts its not the USGS people.

Last Saturday Badkolo had a long talk to a 55 years old man who works for CNN.  He talked to him about TMZ breaking the news about Mike's 'death', and this man told Badkolo that CNN has to have 2 sources and one confirmation in order to make claims.  That's the reason TMZ beat them, because CNN didn't meet these requirements until minutes after TMZ broke the news.

I'd like to know what CNN's sources and confirmation were in regards to this earthquake...
