Bombings in the NYC area

The further reading, particularly a NYT's article (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/19/nyregion/bill-de-blasio-new-york-explosion.html), makes it clear that he declined to declare it terrorism before they had enough information, but left it open. 

Looks like I've been duped. Appropriate response. Similar to not immediately declaring the PP shooter as a terrorist until his motives were made known. 

I too will concede the Good Morning America link made his declaration of not terror seem more definitive than it actually was. After listening to the actual interview, the only fault I can find is him saying there is no credible evidence of terrorist threats against New Yorkers at this time. I think finding a pressure cooker bomb might be credible evidence.
