Breaking news - a few weeks ago

Posted on June 18, 2003 by Gene

Just a moment ago, droning in the background, WUSA TV 9 ran a promo for it’s news. The promo began like a special report: “This just in, a car bomb has exploded in Saudi Arabia.” After a few more moments, the logo appears and the promo for the news begins.
This is unfair, especially in this day and age. It was obviously designed to make people drop what they are doing and turn to the TV to find out what happened, only to be marketed to.
Bastards.
