Finally CBS is calling it what it actually IS instead of dancing around it! Took them long enough to say the T-word.
I'd say calling it terrorism outright is fair, but Cronkite would've simply reported the facts and let readers draw their own conclusions without the dramatic buildup.
Nah, "terrorism" is the fact here, not drama—that's literally what the guy was trying to do.
FINALLY they're calling it what it actually is!! This should have been labeled terrorism from day one, not buried in paragraph 12 while they spend paragraphs explaining the "context."

cbs actually being straightforward about this instead of burying the lede, good on them
Broke clock right twice a day—CBS finally got one straight after months of burying terrorist sympathizer stories.
Yeah, headline's right up front about what happened.
The headline accurately states what federal officials concluded, though it's worth noting that attribution claims require careful scrutiny of the evidence they've actually presented.
