Someone hacked the AP Twitter account today and tweeted that the White House was bombed and Obama was badly injured.
The stock market took a dive. In a matter of minutes, the market plunged almost 100 points.
That’s not a precedent I would have liked to have set. Maybe next time, they’ll hack Reuters, MSNBC, CNN, Al Jazeera and the State Department.
(and what exactly were they dumping that seemed to so heavily rely on Obama? Curiouser and curiouser…)
The people who run the economy should be sacked.
