Is there someone dead in the lobby or is there someone in custody? Was the person armed or not? Did he make it into the ballroom or not? Usually there should be a pretty wide grace period on finding this out, but there are literally hundreds of reporters in the room and nobody knows shit.

Analysis Summary
A shooting incident occurred at the White House Correspondents' Dinner tonight with President Trump present; he was evacuated safely and a suspect is in custody with no other injuries reported. Collins is critiquing the chaotic information environment on scene—with hundreds of reporters present, basic facts about whether anyone was killed, what happened in specific locations, and whether the shooter was armed remained unclear hours into the event. This reflects a common breaking news dynamic where massive press presence doesn't guarantee rapid clarity on critical details during active security incidents.
