Hello, I’m Charlotte Bellis and you’re watching newsy.com.  That was video from FOX News, CNN, and MSNBC.

AIG bonuses spark outrage and action among American citizens, politicians and the media.  
If you’re keeping track, there are now over 10,000 stories on google news on the bonuses. We’re bringing you a sampling of those headlines and opinions from around the United States, beginning with the Detroit Free Press, who has this political cartoon.

The cartoon depicts an AIG executive dropping a blue collar American off a pier- and walking away with a hefty payment. (Detroit Free Press)

Detroit Free Press also brings us this mockery of the popular American game monopoly… showing what they see as a skewed system… with a get out of jail free card… and a “you help destroy the entire home mortgage industry…” card.

With citizens angry over the bonuses, there is pressure on the U.S. government to perform.  CNN, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and IndyStar.com bring us coverage of the Senate’s response…

“Lawmakers feel that heat, jostling one another to demonstrate they are angry too.” (CNN)

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution comments sarcastically, “Washington, on cue, is outraged” (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)

IndyStar.com sees “Politicians asleep at bailout wheel” (The Indianapolis Star)

U.S. President Barack Obama has also come under fire for missteps in the AIG controversy.  CNN’s Anderson Cooper, AFP, and US News and World Report bring us headlines.

“New action in the works to get the money back and new questions about whether this is crippling the obama administration.” (Anderson Cooper 360 Degrees)

The AFP says “Obama caught in the eye of AIG storm” (AFP)

US News & World Report notes that: “AIG Bonuses continue to dog Obama” (U.S. News and World Report)

So what do you think about the AIG bailout?  Should the U.S. government take the money back?
