Brendan Conway wonders, “What is this, good news morning for conservatives?” or “[D]id I die and go to Purgatory?” Here are the headlines that have caused his existential ponderment:
New York Times: MSNBC removes Olbermann, Matthews from anchor seat on account of liberal bias
USA Today: McCain takes 10-point lead over Obama among likely voters
Washington Times: Obama verbal slip, refers to “my Muslim faith”
Daily Telegraph: American Al Qaeda Adam Gadahn rumored killed in Predator strike
Times of London: Kim Jong Il died in 2003, intel expert says
It’s hard not to love the last line of the Washington Times story: “Asked to comment on the accidental misstatement…Obama spokesman Bill Burton offered this comment: ‘I’m not surprised that the only outlet doing this story is the Washington Times.’”
