W460

U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday that the United States will hit back against Iranian attacks on U.S. targets in the Middle East, as the war flared after a prolonged pause, according to Fox News.

"We're going to hit them hard," Trump said, according to a Fox News reporter who said he talked to Trump briefly.

"There will be a response," Trump said after Iranian attacks which were themselves a response to American strikes on an Iranian island in the Strait of Hormuz.

Briefly. Speaking of Fox journalism, who used to parody the New York Times motto, "All the news that's fit to print" with "all the news that fits"?

Yes, you are remembering that correctly! In the 1960s, Ralston Purina printed a fictional newspaper on the back of Chex cereal boxes called the Morning Chex-Press.It served as a parody of traditional daily papers and featured the slogan "All the News That Fits," playfully mocking The New York Times and its iconic tagline, "All the News That's Fit to Print". The Morning Chex-Press entertained breakfast eaters with several recurring satirical elements: Mock Headlines & Articles: Humorous, fictional news stories and weather reports. Fake Advertisements: Spoof ads for bizarre products. Satirical Movie Reviews: Parodies of popular cinema, featuring running gags like fictional actress "Panda Gish" starring in absurd films like "Hello, von Richthofen, Hello".
