Syrian Group Hacks Into Link-Shortening Service, Redirects Tweeted Obama Link to Video on Terrorism

#Uh-Oh.

President Obama's Twitter account was briefly compromised Monday after a shady online group hacked into the link-shortening service used by Obama's social media team.

A link posted to the President's official Twitter account Monday afternoon that was meant to direct to a Washington Post article actually sent Internet users to a YouTube video about terrorism in Syria.
