Balloon Boy’s Father Gets Emotional, Denies Hoax To Larry King

video
» 8 comments

Empathy, sorrow and compassion are emotions one typically feels after watching a guest tear up on television. But every rule has an exception, and the appearance of Richard Henne (a.k.a. father to Balloon Boy) on Larry King is one such exception. CNN’s Wolf Blitzer aired clips of tonight’s coming interview with Larry King in which Henne gets remarkably emotional telling his side of the story, most notably, that there was no hoax. Video below.

    This man has more than a screw loose…

    ‘remarkably emotional’ is code-speak for ‘fake.’

    The guy’s powers of self-delusion are incredible. He even referred to his wife as a “very talented musician” after her guitar solo in that execrable “Pussified” video.

    And Klein calls CNN the place for “real journalism”. No wonder their ratings are in the pits; who really cares what this guy thinks. Stupid move by CNN and LKL to even have him on.

    Now I understand why I seldom watch CNN any more. Without screwed up celebrities, they would have nothing to talk about.

    So you never told me… were you banned from the Howard Stern site… or just tired of getting mocked?

    From Nachi on the Stern site:

    1. I am, always have been, and always will be a total asshole. I *must* take the opposing view, no matter what the argument is — always the underdog side of things.
