The White House just announced that President Obama will make a stop in California on his way to his annual Christmas holiday in Hawaii to pay his respects to the victims of the December 2 terror attack in San Bernardino:

But check out how the Associated Press framed it. It was a “mass shooting,” not a “terrorist attack” or as the Los Angeles Times wrote, a “massacre”:
President Obama to meet with families of the victims of this month's mass shooting in San Bernardino: https://t.co/kYqD048OZm

The AP’s write-up is even worse. Radicalized how, perchance? The AP doesn’t say:
Fourteen people were killed and 21 others were injured at a workplace holiday party in San Bernardino by a gun-wielding husband-and-wife team. Federal authorities say the couple had become self-radicalized years before the Dec. 2 attack.

@AP Very interesting you choose to call it a "mass shooting" rather than what it really was, a terrorist attack. Towing the liberal line.
