What?!? There was a terrorist attack in Paris in November 2015?!?

Why didn't the media ever tell me that?!?

And here I thought the reason that some of my friends were using French flag avatars on Facebook was because they really, really, really liked crepes.

Gee, thanks media for not properly reporting that!

They were too busy sending reporters to conspire to not cover Bowling Green. I think there was a big secret meeting held in the Cayman Islands or something like that.

Why would they cover up 3 Americans stopping an attack on a train between Brussels and Paris?

And just saw the episode that followed the Paris attacks. The cold open that night was Cecily Strong on the stage talking about the attack...in English and French.
