Fox Business host Lou Dobbs has deleted this tweet in which he asserted it is “fake news” that mail bombs were sent to high-profile Democrats and CNN's offices.
"Fake bombs," he called them, in his tweet.

Dobbs has now posted this tweet, after deleting his previous tweet in which he called the explosive devices mailed to high-profile Democrats "fake bombs."
He now says "fake news has just successfully changed the narrative," sort of implying the same thing his prior tweet did.

I reached out about an hour ago to Fox spokespeople asking about Dobbs' tweets, and whether they are in accordance with Fox Business Network standards. Haven't heard back yet.
A Fox Business Network spokesperson tells me Dobbs has "clarified his sentiment" in this tweet. What exactly did he clarify?
Several employees at Fox News -- sister channel to Fox Biz -- have expressed dismay to me about Dobbs today. One senior Fox News employee told me, "It's people like Dobbs who really ruin it for all the hard working journalists at Fox." cnn.com/2018/10/25/med…
On his show, @LouDobbs assailed media for calling the suspicious packages “bombs.” He said authorities haven’t definitively said they were bombs.
But FBI has said the devices "appear to be pipe bombs.” And they were functional, per initial examination.
