Getting fired for almost starting WW3 due to a fake story you wrote seems like a pretty light punishment. Maybe the AP will do a better job fact checking in the future before causing a war.
- duxup 4y agoI doubt anyone at the Pentagon is launching missiles after reading an AP story.
- encryptluks2 4y agoYet Bush gets a free pass for actually starting a war on false information.
- roywiggins 4y agoEven if it had been a Russian missile it would not have caused a wider war. The Soviets shot down a whole airliner in 1983 and didn't cause one.

- tomjakubowski 4y agoIf nuclear powers decided to launch missiles based only on random newspaper articles we'd all be long dead.
