Marketing ploy shuts down Boston
Suits from Turner Broadcasting were apologizing as fast as they could Wednesday afternoon when several devices (describe as “magnetic lights”) were discovered around the Boston area. Officials thought they might have been some sort of terrorist plot. So they shut down the Charles River… and 93… and pretty much all of Boston.
The devices depicted the Mooninites (pictured at left), characters on Cartoon Network’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force show, giving the finger. They had been placed in several cities by a marketing company called Interference Inc. The Boston cops said they’ve arrested at least one person, probably someone from Interference. We suspect that he/she is in a lot of hot, bubbly, stupid water. We also suspect that the folks at Interference who cooked up the plot, like many of the Aqua Teen Hunger Force viewers, are too young to remember 9/11.

It seems like Boston officials may also be a little old if not a single person on their staff recognized a Mooninite. No Adult Swim for the Beantown officials, huh?BEN
