'This country blows'! AP's deceptive headline leads to widespread liberal freakout

As Twitchy reported, this afternoon, the Associated Press crossed over into “outright deception” with this tweet:

BREAKING: Senate Republicans block bill to restore free contraception under health care law.

— The Associated Press (@AP) July 16, 2014

Informed tweeters immediately called B.S., but unfortunately, other people didn’t realize that they’d been misled:

They swallowed the AP’s take hook, line, and sinker:

Of course. Take note women @GOP is anti us “@AP BREAKING Senate Republicans block bill to restore free contraception under health care law.”

It’s easy to dismiss these people as ignorant lefties, but we need to learn from this. Like it or not, a lot of people will believe whatever the media tell them:

And that can spell disaster.
