Look at that low plane

We were somewhat upset when we saw two military fighter jets escorting a passenger airliner tonight. We thought there was something very havy going down. It turns out that instead of some sort of major "Oh crap!" moment, our tax dollars, which are already being wasted on an unneeded military adventure in Iraq, were being used for the aircraft (turns out the "civilian airliner" was a military airliner) to fly over the stadium of the worst team in the history of any organized professional sport on the planet - the pathetic losers known as the Philadelphia Phillies. Nothing like scaring the crap out of people and wasting tax money for some minor league baseball team theatrics!

At least inform people of your plans so as not to get people wondering if there is another 9-11 going down. Not that we would consume any of the offerings of any of the horrible mainstream media outlets here in hell. I'd read the Post before I'd read any of the daily papers here in hell.

And don't get me started about TV or radio.
Who the hell hires the host of Access Hollywood as a news anchor?
The CBS owned station here in hell.

Who the hell uses music that is from the 1970s as their theme? The ABC owned station here in hell. It does sort of fit with the newscast, which seems like a low budget version of Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy fronted with an obviously closeted guy with 'stashe and bad wig.

Who the hell hires some guy arrested for pretending to be an ATF agent and putting him on air? The NBC owned station here in Hell.

Sadly the Fox owned station seems to be the best of the bunch. That should tell you something!
Plus there is nothing like NY1. Pathetic! Well there probably isn't enough actual news here in hell to fill 24 hours seven days a week.

Apparently there are no parallels to Chuck Scarborough and Sue Simmons (the gold standard in local news anchoring) even if Sue does use the F-word every now and then on air. We have met Sue a couple of times. She is a big sweetheart and a fan of a proper baseball team - the Mets!

The one (yes one!) all news radio station seems to have (an obviously fake) news ticker machine in the background. These things haven't been used for decades. It is just stupid.
