Boston Globe Ignores Own Reporter's Viral Tweet About Obama Reaction to MH17 Crash
NewsBusters ^ | July 18, 2014 | P.J. Gladnick

It was the tweet that went viral around the world and all over the web. The one notable exception where the tweet remains unmentioned is at the Boston Globe. So what's so strange about that? It's because the author of the tweet is Boston Globe reporter, Matt Viser.

Perhaps it is the subject matter that makes the Boston Globe reluctant to refer to the tweet although it is already widely known on the Web. The UK Daily Mail also featured it. So will the Boston Globe eventually follow suit? The matter is open to question because Viser's tweet was a devastating observation about President Obama's bizarre  reaction to the crash of Malaysian flight MH17 yesterday in Ukraine. Here is the Boston Globe reporter's tweet that has yet to be reported in the Boston Globe:

Obama was informed of the ‘news’ by none other than Pootie Poot his very self.

Wonder if Pootie Poot said anything else besides just the straight news?

Obama seems to have the same stilted emotional state as Sonya Cross of “The Bridge.”

The responses to the Tweet were pretty telling. Nobody even tried to spin that in a positive way.

The media, which complained about President Bush’s response upon being told of 9/11, will totally ignore the driveler-in-chief’s lack of empathetic response to this tragedy.

Sorry, I don't watch movies or tv shows, not aware of ‘The Bridge’.

Back on topic re: Boston Globe - ALL journalists EPIC FAIL!!!

If only a single brave soul stood up and asked questions, we won't have the six plus years (and counting) of Obama's reign.

/Disclaimer: I don't think Hillary, Romney, or McCain reign would be anything significantly better. But that's just me.

There is an explanation for the apparent total lack of social skills exhibited by the character Sonya Cross. The character is an example of Asperger’s syndrome, a very high order of autism, in which the person seems to have very high level of intelligence, and zero for personality.

While the Current Occupant seems to have the total lack of interpersonal empathy, he is NOT endowed with any particularly great intellectual attainment.

I’ve been watching “The Bridge” on CouchTuner.eu. Great show. It was originally a show about a bridge between Denmark and Sweden but how different culturally are Danes from Swedes? Certainly much less difference than between American and Mexican society. That difference is what makes this show interesting in addition to Sonya Cross’s mental quirks.

“...seems to have the total lack of interpersonal empathy...”

No “seems” about it.
He once dissed one of Rick Perry’s arguments by saying -
‘Why should we listen to that guy?
Half his state’s on fire’...

He is an unfeeling narcissistic monster.

Remember when two reporters were beat up in a black ‘knockout’ game... AND the paper they wrote for didn’t cover the story for two weeks because the story wasn’t politically correct?

This is the same liberal bull crap...

It’s no different than his mention of the Fort Hood shooting. Just an insignificant sidebar during a much more important fundraiser. If possible he would airbrush it away.
