We’d already be dead. Jupiter is over 11 times bigger than Earth and would block out the sun.

Jupiter is so dangerously close to the earth due to global warming caused by man-made carbon emissions.

Everybody panic.

Actually it’s only 88 miles from Miami.

Oh, wait, I thought he meant Jupiter, Florida.

NBC #FAKENEWS.

If Trump had a faux pas like that, every network would run it ad infinitum....and use it as an example of stupidity.

NBC does it, and it’ll be forgotten tomorrow.

Jupiter is too close to the earth because whitey.

Lester Holt, the Science Dolt? Better than “Bill Nye, the Non-Scientist Guy”.

Gee, only 415 miles from Earth? As the late, great Don Adams would say, “Missed it by THAT much”.

Well, it is better than saying “Uranus is only 500 miles from Earth”.

Come to think of it, NBC News is full of “Anuses”, so it is a solar system all by itself, totally devoid of intelligent life.

And it could bump into us and slosh water all over.

Nope. Everyone knows that Jupiter’s orbit is outside the earths. Of course, fitting Mars in between could be a problem ...
