What’s going on with the AP Twitter account lately? After this masterpiece Wednesday:
School in Gaza hit, 15 dead; kids go missing, no reports made; Ticket me Elmo in #AP10Things: http://t.co/SnmLdWrYXW
— The Associated Press (@AP) July 30, 2014

Gaza school hit, House weighs VA overhaul and more in #AP10Things: http://t.co/JA91XTQr0H. (revises this tweet: http://t.co/6UMMSr1Ybt )
— The Associated Press (@AP) July 30, 2014
