Jon Stewart's statement was about right

Last Thursday (was it Thursday?) on the Daily Show Jon Stewart made a quick aside to the "Balloon Boy" story.

"Oh thank goodness balloon boy was safe...LET'S GET HIM!"


The whole story is the epitome of how awful cable news is and how easy they are to exploit. If the father perpetrated this hoax then prosecute him, but metaphorically take your torches to the cable media as well, they're acting all indignant now, but if they weren't such whores to begin with this would never have become what it did.

"Oh thank goodness Balloon Boy is safe, let's get Wolf Blitzer! (metaphorically)"


Because there isn't a bigger moron (not on FoxNews) on television.
