Staging the News

Good Golly! The video at the link is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. And I do mean laugh out loud funny.

Seems as though an NBC reporter for the Today Show staged a little scene in a 'flooded' street. Then, well, a bit of bad timing takes place that reveals the absurdity.

As you watch this, remember that the media is hyperventilating and sticking extra pins in their Bush Voodoo dolls over his not-so-staged question/answer session with some soldiers.

Oh yeah, that's it....the sweet, sweet smell of irony. And the extra hot fudge on top comes complimentary of the Today Show no less.
