It was a rough Thursday for the NY Post when stories such as these showed up on the paper’s website.

But, it wasn’t just the Post’s website that was carrying the foul messages, the company’s Twitter page was also hacked.

It turns out that this wasn’t really a “hack” as it was an employee from the Post that was putting out the vile messages.

"The New York Post's investigation indicates that the unauthorized conduct was committed by an employee," the Post said in a statement. The company says that the employee has been fired.

I’m thinking that after the employee posted a story with a headline about murdering the President, I think getting fired from his job will not be his biggest problem.

I have a feeling that the Secret Service will be taking a look into this as well.

Also, some people still weren’t sure in this just wasn’t the NY Post being the NY Post.
