Not so late breaking news: Little Rock airport renamed for Bill and Hillary [View all]

Somehow I missed this story in the Washington Post and on DU.

Little Rock airport renamed Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport after unanimous vote
By Associated Press, Published: March 20

"LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Travelers flying into Little Rock will now be reminded of Arkansas’ most famous political couple after officials voted Tuesday to rename the city’s airport after Bill and Hillary Clinton.

The Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission unanimously agreed to change the name of the Little Rock National Airport to honor former President Bill Clinton and his wife, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The former president, an Arkansas native and the state’s former governor, said they were humbled."
