| MSNBC’s ‘truck crash’ framing of France terror attack ignites Twitter mockery |
| 2016-07-17 |
| [WASHINGTONTIMES] An MSNBC tweet on late Thursday that framed La Belle France’s latest terror attack as a "truck crash" elicited a stinging response from readers. "Follow our live blog for the latest from Nice after a truck crash leaves at least 70 dead," the network tweeted at 8:49 p.m. EST., well after even President B.O. and French President Francois Hollande ...the Socialist president of La Belle France, an economic bad joke for la Belle France but seemingly a foreign policy realist... called the event an act of terrorism. Mohammed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, killed at least 84 people during Bastille Day ceremonies by plowing a giant truck through crowds along the Promenade des Anglais. "We cannot deny that it was a terror attack," Mr. Hollande told the country during a nationally televised address. "We stand in solidarity and partnership with La Belle France, our oldest ally, as they respond to and recover from this attack," added Mr. Obama in a statement. |
