To be fair I frequently see people refer to armored vehicles used for transport as tanks. News organizations likely just took someone's report of a "tank" and ran with it. I don't really know why but it's a common thing which is why I assumed it was exactly that in this instance

looks like a general purporse armored troop transport. I guess it could be considered a tank if you completely butcher the definition of the word tank.

SWAT always arrives in these vehicles and SWAT also is automatically called to assist any time a perpetrator is reported to have a firearm regardless of circumstance.

Does this mean OP has no idea what a tank is, or does it mean they don't actually read/watch the content they post aside from skimming the headline?

Well the Waco siege had tanks although that was because they had high power firearms and the tanks were used to breach the walls.

They must have had an actual employee correct it. Literally said "authorities are in the scene and have a tank"

So...

Bringing in a tank would be kinda cool. If you got expensive hardware, might as well use it.

CNN has updated their article and removed the word "tank" because that's what good journalism does

No. I mean, they were probably told they had a tank from a panicked bystander. While I can understand a panicked bystander making that mistake under intense stress, actual good journalism would have verified there was an actual fucking tank before reporting on it.

No, good journalism doesn't misreport in the first place because it only reports facts.

Im fine with them getting the facts wrong time to time, if its minor like this, but dont update it without notifying of corrections

Thats bad journalism, too
