    This just in - people who like to be on "reality" shows are odd.

    Meanwhile, I hear the "news" networks interrupted coverage of Obama's Louisiana trip for this. (Remember Obama? Remember NOLA?)

    Hmmm, maybe more people in this country would understand the real news if we presented it like a "reality" show. News about the economy could be slipped into a show called American Idle. Then you could have Survivor: American Healthcare. Or C-Span's I'm a Senator - Get Me Out of Here ... #4chan

    Did we figure out if he's the same Richard Heene who lived about 13 miles from CIA headquarters in mid 90's?

    Is he related to the guy who runs AdPay.com? If so, are they in cahoots?

    Was this just a test to study how information about events flow through the networks?

    Or is it part of a larger campaign to demoralize the country by messing violently with its trust?

    Bonus: How is this whole episode related to Harold Pinter's play, The Birthday Party? #4chan

    The Heenes are exhausting even in small doses, the kids are basically nasty and rude people. I've seen their handiwork on quite a few clips on various shows--sucks to be them, really. #4chan

    I am still fairly concerned that this was an episode of Arrested Development. A flying machine that loses control? A child hidden in a crawl space? A father who looks like he's from 1990? Twenty bucks says Lucille Austero has a thing for the little one. #4chan

    Media whoring is quite a tiresome job, but if you want a reality show, you better be up for the challenge. Suck it up, future-Gosselins. #4chan

    In reply to New York Times Embraces 'Epic Fail'
    Once the editors saw that “Epic Fail” would be the title of the second episode of House in the current season, there was no turning back—the television show being the perfect popular counterpart to their paper: a favored vehicle of white male glorification, aspiration, and fantasy. #language
