One Tin Soldier Rides Away

Iowahawk has a superb mock headline roundup of how the legacy media is (depending upon your point of view) either covering Nidal Hasan, or would prefer to be covering him.

Update: Whoops — I missed this line in Iowahwk’s spot-on parody of Time magazine: “Hasan was a psychiatrist whom the Army desperately needed to help tend to the mental wounds of two wars.”

Sorry, my bad; that’s from the real Time magazine. But we knew that already, right?

Update: “Yes, it is Onion day in America, as the absurdities pile up.”
