I am new here. Let's all think for a sec.
Millions of people watch all of the Fox channels this ticker could have appeared on.
Now, with that in mind, only one person….. ONE put this on twitter or for that matter anywhere else on the supposed date of April 28. I would think there would have been at least a dozen threads started on this site.
I did an hour searching in addition to the searches other members of ATS did. Nada, nothing. Now a lot of discussion about this on other sites…. BUT ONLY ONE INITIAL POSTING TIME STAMPED APRIL 28!
What about the guy Sohaib Athar (@ReallyVirtual) who live-tweeted the operation in Pakistan about 7 hours before bin Laden's death was announced?
I will not try to explain why the author or how the author did this… that's not my concern. If she did it to start MANY sites to begin a thread regarding what she claims she saw… she has succeeded and succeeded well.
My concern is millions or even just hundreds of thousands had the potential of seeing this on the ticker if it appeared that OSL was dead and posting the same on twitter or somewhere else on the net. NO ONE DID.
That makes this really questionable.
My thought: Most likely she was simply mistaken on the 28th and misread a different ticker report involving OSL.
So, I will give her the benefit of the doubt and the shear creepy coincidence of the timing of a ticker report about OSL days before he deserved demise.
The government has not handled this well. Everything they do just raises more questions about the event.
Respectfully submitted

It is clear evidence that on the 28th (USA time) the OP had tweet OBL death because of "Fox News":
Possible theories:
1) OBL death is known to Fox News and they made a mistake by tickering it too early. (Likely)
2) The OP unknowingly about herself actually has Premonition and/or Precognition abilities and saw something of the future on the 28th. (Likely)
3) In Twitter there is a bug to change the time of a tweet, and OP created a hoax with it. (Not Likely)
Note: By the way, it is a disgrace to see so many bashing on her, just because she is opening a thread with a topic that is not in line with some people's preconceived brainwashed "facts" from the MSM and/or official source from the White House.

This is somewhat unrelated, but the team of writer monkeys that put together the Fox News ticker had another dose of tomfoolery by posting "Obama Bin Laden Dead" some time during the reporting of the official story.

Again, you miss out the most likely and obvious option 4: She misread the ticker related to other OBL stories that were out at the time.
I mean really.

Or option 5: that she (and her grandmother) read the ticker right, but that the headline, itself, was a typo/accidental misstatement of one of the other OBL stories that were out at the time.

Someone help me out with this. I'm confused.
The OP said this:
Yeah, between 6:30 and 8pm PST that night...the night of the 28th, not the 27th.
But on her twitter feed, it shows that she made the post at 12:43 PM. How is it possible she tweeted about it before she saw it? I'm in the USA just as she is, so time zone differences can't possibly account for the discrepancy.
That's a good question. I quoted your whole post so it would carry over to the new page and others can see it. As so I could keep up with where I left off in the thread when I log in tomorrow. lol
I must be in the same time zone as you because I also get 12:43 PM. I thought perhaps twitter had a default time zone setting for non members and that is why our time slots were off. So I logged in and made sure I was set to CST. Still showed 12:43 PM.
So I would like to look into the point you bring up because that is a good question. I also want to look at the OP's posts in the thread to make sure it was for sure between 6-8 PM or if that was just the best they could remember.
I'm not a big Twitter user so can anyone provide insight into this since the OP is offline for now?
Didn't she say she was traveling? Where was she at the time, anyone remember?

Oh that makes sense.. PT 10:43, MT 11:43, CT 12:43, and ET 1:43... correct?

Maybe I’m just being pedantic, but does anyone else think these two posts by the OP contradict each other?
My grandmother called me that day and told me she had seen it too.
My grandmother also saw the ticker and she actually was the one who called my attention to it.
