What's goin on here ...

So it's all over CNN like white on rice:

Suspicious Devices in Boston Turn Out to Be Ad Campaign for Cartoon - New York Times

BOSTON, Jan. 31 — Boston temporarily closed parts of bridges, subway stations, an Interstate highway and even part of the Charles River on Wednesday after the authorities found what the police described as suspicious devices at nine places.

But the devices, which included circuit boards, turned out to be part of a marketing campaign by Turner Broadcasting to advertise a cartoon television show, “Aqua Teen Hunger Force.”

Didn't see anything on CNBC, granted I was busy sorting out a lame router/LAN, but ...
NOTE : Turner and CNN are both Time Warner outfits... and Time Warner was releasing earnings.

Bit of hype? or News covering Hype?
