Media Having Trouble Finding Right Angle On Obama's Double-Homicide
WASHINGTON—More than a week after President Barack Obama's cold-blooded killing of a local couple, members of the American news media admitted Tuesday that they were still trying to find the best angle for covering the gruesome crime.
"I know there's a story in there somewhere," said Newsweek editor Jon Meacham, referring to Obama's home invasion and execution-style slaying of Jeff and Sue Finowicz on Apr. 8. "Right now though, it's probably best to just sit back and wait for more information to come in. After all, the only thing we know for sure is that our president senselessly murdered two unsuspecting Americans without emotion or hesitation."
Added Meacham, "It's not so cut and dried."
Media Having Trouble
Associated Press reporters investigate any possible gym training regimens the president might have used to get into peak physical condition for the murders.
Since the killings took place, reporters across the country have struggled to come up with an appropriate take on the ruthless crime, with some wondering whether it warrants front-page coverage, and others questioning its relevance in a fast-changing media landscape.

I totally get the satire of the article, that the Annointed one could get away with murder so to speak, but saying that in this format about a sitting president? The satire will be lost on alot of people.

Especially since Obama was complicit in the killing of three young men in the recent piracy/hostage situation. :laugh:

Allow me to unleash the tactical nuke.
There's going so far, and then there's going way too far, and even this one bothers me, and I sure as hell don't even like the guy.
