How do the Ferguson police mix up the sex of the wounded officer?

http://twitter.com/#!/knightsofknox/status/516090764485734400

As Twitchy reported earlier, there were multiple incorrect reports that the officer wounded in Ferguson, Missouri was a woman. How exactly do the police mess something like that up?

Tweeters are wondering the same thing:

What a weird thing to get wrong RT @GPollowitz: Note the police have changed their earlier report: Officer who was shot in #ferguson is male

— Mollie (@MZHemingway) September 28, 2014

NYT still reporting officer shot in Ferguson was a woman. St. Louis County police chief confirms it was a male. pic.twitter.com/2zPgrbmBlW

OK, this seems pretty basic… RT @GPollowitz: Note the police have changed their earlier report: Officer who was shot in #ferguson is male

— Nathan Wurtzel (@NathanWurtzel) September 28, 2014

And we’ll leave it at this:

@MZHemingway @GPollowitz But these days who knows what male even means? Was the officer Cisgendered?

— David Marcus (@BlueBoxDave) September 28, 2014

@BlueBoxDave @GPollowitz just because he was assigned a penis-designated sex doesn't mean anything, you're right.

Unbelievable: Byron York notes ‘a Hillary classic on Benghazi’

http://twitter.com/#!/BigKahuna919191/status/476131233379143680

Byron York caught a gem in Hillary Clinton’s interview with Diane Sawyer of ABC News:

http://twitter.com/#!/ByronYork/status/476130103223939072

Unbelievable.

Accountability again takes a holiday!

The answers to those last questions remain very unclear.

‘Clicks first, facts later’: Vox’s cred gets whacked after ‘Sopranos’ scoop

http://twitter.com/#!/redsteeze/status/504781051613683712

Earlier today, Vox caused quite a stir with this story:

http://twitter.com/#!/voxdotcom/status/504591677622091777

According to Voxsplainer Martha P. Nochimson, “The Sopranos” creator David Chase revealed that Tony Soprano didn’t die at the end of the series finale.

Yeah … about that:

http://twitter.com/#!/ditzkoff/status/504776167908724736

More from Today:

The Vox report seemed clear-cut enough — until late Wednesday when Chase’s representative Leslee Dart issued this statement:

“A journalist for Vox misconstrued what David Chase said in their interview. To simply quote David as saying, ‘Tony Soprano is not dead,’ is inaccurate. There is a much larger context for that statement and as such, it is not true.

“As David Chase has said numerous times on the record, ‘Whether Tony Soprano is alive or dead is not the point.’ To continue to search for this answer is fruitless. The final scene of ‘The Sopranos’ raises a spiritual question that has no right or wrong answer.”

Oh, Vox … will you ever learn?

http://twitter.com/#!/BrianFaughnan/status/504780047614750720

How on earth could this have happened?

http://twitter.com/#!/seanmdav/status/504780281501716480

Bingo.

http://twitter.com/#!/sharkey_nick/status/504783780725673984 http://twitter.com/#!/JohnEkdahl/status/504781287349952512

Snort.

Looks like we’re back to square one!

So, is this how Biden tried to out-do Obama’s photo op hug with Nina Pham?

http://twitter.com/#!/nickdqwk/status/525709069214953474

No, for real; it’s hilarious. As Twitchy readers know, President Obama had a photo op with nurse Nina Pham, who has been declared Ebola-free.

Not to be outdone, did Joe Biden do this?

Perfect.

‘Literally LOL’d!’ What was Jimmy Fallon’s FLOTUS, funeral selfie prediction?

http://twitter.com/#!/harveststyles/status/408459745209884672

Speaking of selfies, comedian Jimmy Fallon weighed in on the President Funeral Selfie kerfuffle. As Twitchy reported, the New York Post epically slammed the president for the selfie at the memorial for Nelson Mandela. Mrs. Obama was also not amused. What is amusing? Fallon’s prediction:

http://twitter.com/#!/jimmyfallon/status/410945264053399552

Zing! That tweet has been retweeted well over 2,000 times and has been made a favorite over 3,000 times.

http://twitter.com/#!/SimpleeChelsea/status/410945712730693633

Well, one thing is clear: We’ll always have mockery opportunities with President Obama. So there’s that? Or something.

‘Makes me sick’: Actor David Koechner weighs in on protests in Murrieta

http://twitter.com/#!/Stephspineapple/status/484162128148844544

Protesters took to the streets yesterday to block buses carrying illegal immigrants from entering the Border Patrol station in Murrieta, California. “Anchorman” actor David Koechner had some thoughts on the story:

http://twitter.com/#!/DavidKoechner/status/484149582884925441

Amnesty proponents certainly have no love for the protesters:

http://twitter.com/#!/MikeBaxterODM/status/484339454849478659

But shouldn’t those protesters be able to make their voices heard?
