Putin in the news, on AM 1070. [View all]

I was driving to my in-laws' house this evening for Mother's Day and had AM news radio on for white noise.
I wasn't really listening, until I heard the announcers talking about Putin.
It was in regards to him playing piano at a meeting with the Chinese or something.
When has the news EVER EVER EVER commented on ANY foreign politician—especially one who heads a country who is at odds with the U.S.?
AM radio is not exactly a popular media source anymore, but that was VERY strange—and I don't think it's good news.
