Really MSNBC.com?



On MSNBC's website they posted this picture attached to one of the main stories for August 20th. It seems pretty innocuous until you read the first sentence of the story that goes along with it: Scotland releases the only man ever convicted in the bombing of a Pan Am jet that killed 270 people. The guy was convicted of blowing up a plane and he is walking up a Jetway with a banner that says, "Next time...Relax before you fly". Just relax before the physical manifestation of your worst fear about flying walks aboard the plane and sits next to you. Does anyone else find this hilarious, ironic, horrifying, and fear mongering all at the same time? No, just me? A terrorist is boarding a plane that say relax before you fly. Isn't that something that would be in a Wayans bros. spoof? I think it's great.
