What idiots...
What idiots...
The Boston police or the pranksters?
ATHF promoters. They knew what the packages would be perceived as, yet still did it anyway.
Cartoon Network is going to get bent over.
I doubt there's any direct affiliation with CN or ATHF. That would be suicide.
Cartoon Network released a statement detailing what the boxes were.![]()
excerpt..
A su ious package alert that shut down downtown Boston Wednesday afternoon was actually part of an elaborate marketing campaign by the Cartoon Network to spark interest in its "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" show.
After state and local officials said they were launching an investigation into a series of "su ious packages" found around the city, the Cartoon Network released a statement saying the packages were magnetic lights that pose no danger.
"They are part of an outdoor marketing campaign in 10 cities in support of Adult Swim's animated television show Aqua Teen Hunger Force," the statement said.
"They have been in place for two to three weeks in Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Seattle, Portland, Austin, San Francisco, and Philadelphia. Parent company Turner Broadcasting is in contact with local and federal law enforcement on the exact locations of the billboards. We regret that they were mistakenly thought to pose any danger."
This is why I get my news from here.
I was going off of what I knew an hour ago.
Did the agency in charge of this campaign forget to get permission from the cities? HUGE no-no.
Does this mean the head of Comedy Central goes to Gitmo?
i say we do what we want, and what i say goes....so fetch me my throne so i may feast upon these hot dogs......
Are you ing kidding me? They arrested him? After they had been there for 2-3 weeks? WTF?
Man, I don't have the info yet so I should refrain from making comments, but this seems really ing stupid so far.
They looked like that????
I'm sorry, but my first though when I see a damn Mooninite isn't "bomb"
If I didn't know what ATHF is, I can't imagine thinking BOMB when seeing that either way. People in Boston are dumb.
Can you believe they blew one of these up?
"Hoax" is a complete misnomer, but I guess they can't use the word " up" as a caption.
They pretty much had to arrest somebody, to keep from making themselves look like total re s
I reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllly want to see what they decide to charge these guys with. I have a feeling its going to be really ing weak.
Oh, there's really no way to have prevented that from happening anymore.
'Bus of the Undead' is THE funniest ATHF episode. Period.
Next week on 24..... Jack Bauer finally meets his match
