Wall-To-Wall Cable News: Six Year-Old Boy Floats Away In Hot-Air Balloon
All three Cable News channels have gone wall-to-wall in covering the breaking story of the six year-old boy in Fort Collins, Colorado reportedly who floated away from the family home on an “experimental aircraft” this morning. Yes, you read that correctly. All channels are airing live shots of the floating balloon, leaving cable hosts to fill airtime as best they can.
Police say that the homemade dome-shaped, 20 foot, 5 foot aircraft (covered with foil) was tethered with a rope while the family constructed it. Some time this morning, the family’s six-year-old son entered the craft and released the rope. Neighbors have spotted the craft nearby, and the Federal Aviation Administration is helping track the aircraft on its radar tower. Denver International Airport has been notified about the situation.
