ATHF's popularity just, fucking, skyrocketed. everyone at work was talking about it, hell, my parents are laughing about it and they pass out 3 hours before the show even comes on.
I think Boston should just suck it up and take the shit that gets thrown at them.

Actually they may not be completely free and clear. It is reported that the marketing company told the two guys not to say anything once all hell was breaking loose. Id say that was a pretty dumb move. Whether turner didn't say anything once they knew, i have no idea.

Yeah, some outlets are apparently also reporting that those two phoned in bomb threats themselves. Yeah...right...
I don't know what the deal is with it but they really don't have to tell the cops or the media anything.
a lot of stuff that i've read from people in boston, with the exception of TNT's comments, seem to side with the officials. On one hand you have to hand it to the cops for acting so quickly, but on the other hand they went WAY to far.
And had the media not run amuck with the story, Boston wouldn't be looking so damn stupid right now on a national level.
