The mile-wide tornado that destroyed Moore, Okla., and leveled at least two elementary schools was still weaving a path of devastation when Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead thought up a funny. Too soon?

@lizzwinstead You just need to stop. You do NOT know what you're talking about. Two schools destroyed.—

We’re still waiting to hear about fatalities as survivors pick through the rubble, but we have news of our first casualty.

Tornado just bumped me from MSNBC. #Benghazi
