Associated Press Twitter Account Hacked

 

 

Picture of Dow Jones Industrial Average Index today.  Someone hacked the Associated Press’ Twitter account and sent out a fake news flash around 12:15 PM saying the White House had been attached and President Obama wounded.

 

The market dropped about 150 points in seconds until officials denied the tweet.
