An interesting tweet was reported as breaking news on Twitter. It said that there were two explosions at the White House and President Barack Obama was injured.
What?
It's that true?
What would happen to the nation in the time of a crisis?
Well this turned out to not be the case!
The Associated Press confirms that their Twitter account was "hacked" by an internet activist group out of country. The Twitter feed reported that the White House had explosions and the president was injured.
The junk food media reported this as newsworthy.
The conservative agitators were probably happy something happen to the president. Alas, they're hopes were diminished.
Today I want to introduce the newest website that coverage the extremism coming from our social ignorant folks over in the conservative jungle. The Republican Party an its allies have been on an ongoing attack of the president either politically or racially. This website is courtesy of Tumblr, it's called Public Shaming.
Thanks to Public Shaming (on Tumblr) and Addicting Info once again for putting out the truth and pulling punches!

| A huge dip caused by one Twitter post. |
What caused this panic was the imminent threat to the President of the United States.
Say if anything would happen to the president, the United States and world will immediate go into crisis mode.
The junk food media and global outlets would cover this all day and night. The social networks will lit up with condolences and sympathy. There will be some in the opposition not so sympathetic to the president. You will find post disgusting rhetoric about the president and the successor Joe Biden, the current Vice President of the United States. The opposition will take an opportunity to insight rhetoric that could lead to violence. There could be rioting in urban areas! The stock market will take a huge drop.
The successor, the Speaker of the House and those in the president and successor's family will get immediate protection from the United States Secret Service.
In the digital age, the individual who takes a photograph of an incident could make it go viral if posted on the social networks. The thought of losing President Barack Obama will incite public opinion. Americans will figure the notion of far right extremism or international terrorism a huge focus. The federal authorities and military will find ways to neutralize and/or eliminate those involved in terrorism.
This example of news arousal gives me pause. If the social networks are to be more trusted than those in the junk food media, then our country is lost to the tabloid nonsense.
The nonsense that keeps King Hippo, agiting, Kim Kardashian successful and Lindsay Lohan troubled.
USA Today reports a group of hackers loyal to embattled Syrian President Bashar Assadclaimed responsibility for the hoax, tweeting out:"Ops! @AP get owned by Syrian Electronic Army! #SEA #Syria #ByeByeObama."
The Dow Jones industrial average plunged more than 128 points in seconds after the report. It recovered just as quickly when the report was found to be false.
The Securities and Exchange Commission declined to comment on the incident, as did the New York Stock Exchange.
"The president is fine," spokesman Jay Carney said. "I was just with him."
