Spin much?

I mean seriously.... I know each news outlet has it's leanings, but this is some serious spin.

I know they aren't blatantly accusing obama of killing the kid, but cmon. How many world events happen at the same time?

It must be the tsunami's fault in Japan that my mother died of cancer last month. wtf.

(and no she's not dead)

If Faux news spun any more the world would turn over.

All news services have their targeted customers. To stay profitable, like any business, they must offer what their customers want.

At least they didn't say he listened to the speech and then killed himself...
