Obama Calls James Franco ‘James Flacco’; Mockery Ensues
.,........................................................................................
by Andrew Kirell | 2:26 pm, December 19th, 2014


During his final 2014 press conference, President Obama had some pretty stern words for Sony Pictures over their decision to pull The Interview in light of terror threats from North Korea-affiliated hackers. Amidst his remarks, though, came a notable flub that sent Twitter into a tizzy with joking responses.

See transcript for the gaffe [emphasis added]:

I think it says something interesting about North Korea that they decided to have the state come out with an all-out attack because of satirical movie starring Seth Rogen and James Flacco. I love Seth and I love James, but the notion that that was a threat to them gives you some sense of the kind of regime we are talking about here.
