white house press

By now you've likely seen the rather horrifying Collateral Murder website, put together from the video leaked to Wikileaks (for which, apparently, US intelligence officials investigated some of the Wikileaks folks).

While there's a lot of ongoing back-and-forth over what the video really shows, there's no doubt that the release of the video is a journalistic scoop.

In what may be some of the worst cell phone etiquette ever recorded, President Obama had a speech interrupted by a reporter’s ringtone yesterday.

The moment, video captured and spreading quickly on YouTube, happened during a White House speech about gay rights.

The ringtone, which is difficult to hear in the video itself, apparently featured something resembling the Aflac quacking duck sound you hear in the insurance company’s commercials.
