This phony backdrop was placed in Howell Raines padded cell in Bellevue, in order to make the former NY Times Editor feel more at home.

Sorry for the technical problems, we will bring you that breaking news as soon as it breaks.

Little away from this: caught a news report live today watching the reporter delivering to the camera news on a murdered 4 year old while screening out all distractions (like a creepy freeper just standing outside her "zone"). I was freaked out when she went from near tears to cold analysis right after the cut.

"The media insists that it's real and the threat from Saddam is fake."

(Curiously enough, those who think NASA's landing on the moon was fake are the same people who think pro wrestling is real.)
