In a press conference on Friday, President Obama expressed his dismay on Sony Pictures’ decision to cancel the release of The Interview after some vague threats were issued to movie theaters which were planning on showing the film.
And while much attention should be paid to Obama’s stance as it deals with issues of national security, foreign relations and free speech, all those rather important issues were set aside when the President accidentally called James Franco by a slightly different name – James Flacco, coincidentally similar to Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco.
It didn’t take long for Joe Flacco to respond.
.@barackobama It's James Franco, not James Flacco 😉
