It must be a slow news day. Instead of doing actual journalism - you know, things like researching a story, getting the facts, writing a compelling piece to make sure the public is informed - the AP has opted to post a story (and I use that term VERY loosely) about how the world is coming to an end.Yep, that's some responsible journalism right there. Let's not look at how Obama has either flip-flopped or changed his tune on virtually every campaign platform he has; don't even try to research whether or not drilling for oil on American soil is a viable option to the current oil crisis. Nope - the editors at the AP felt everyone in the world was a little too happy, and they took it upon themselves to knock us down a couple pegs.
I don't know if the picture will change, but when I first read the story, the headline "Everything is seemingly spinning out of control," was placed next to a picture of the hosts of The View. I don't think there's a better visual representation of the Apocalypse than the idiotic talking heads from The View. At least you got that part right, AP.
Maybe there should be some sort of rule at the AP about writing stories while crashing from the weekend binge. Oh well.
