Beautiful.
As Twitchy reported, Reuters offered up what may be its most absurdly ignorant headline yet. You see, the headline reads, “Pope, in nod to conservatives, calls abortion ‘horrific’.” Wait, the pope is Catholic? Totally the fault of conservatives.

Natch.
Is Reuters saying here that killing babies is a "liberal" thing? http://t.co/v6z06reIUF

Bam! Great point.
The mockery continued:
.@instapundit And to think, @Reuters spent all that time learning the Latin for "Safe, legal and rare" for nothing. @jeffemanuel

Snicker.
And soon “nods” were helpfully pointed out to Reuters.
Pope, in nod to Ten Commandments, reaffirms "Thou Shalt Not Kill"; media hardest hit. http://t.co/08kuWYAACR

Perfect.
An exit hashtag suggestion:
