In the wake of the whole "Balloon Boy" story, several pundits/editors/opiners have been criticizing the media for their live crisis coverage. I don't blame the media at all. After all . . .
A 6-year old boy flying around in an out-of-control balloon is a HUGE FRAKKING STORY.
They had no way to figure out it was a hoax at the time and really, if you were running a news network, would you choose not to run the live story?
