CNN's Looking Up

So maybe celebrity news can get slow and old, even CNN can vouch that. But where does a major news network look to find a decent story to cover when Hollywood doesn't have much to offer that week?

They look up, of course. That's where the REAL ground-breaking news comes from. Actually, CNN looks to Stephenville, Texas first... then they look up... for none other than, ALIENS.



I don't even know how CNN could possibly let this story fly... and with a straight face nonetheless.

The voiceover of the news piece seemed too theatrical to possibly suggest that CNN realizes this story is crap, but why even bother airing it? It was a little under 2 minutes... There are a million other interesting things CNN can cover on the local or international front for 120 seconds than some extra-terrestrial sighting... What's next, Big Foot?
