My favorite part of the CNN graphic is the big box that reads, "Balloon Boy Lives!" That makes him sound like Bat Boy from the Weekly World News.

Some follow up, and wuss journalism at it's finest.
First, Wolf Blitzer (damn near offers to suck the guys dick as an apology after "exposing" him).... Then the today show where the kid pukes... You be the judge. The idiot is an attention whore, that is what he has to gain. Attention. Keep lying idiot. Even if he is not lying (doubtful), he is a terrible parent. Never mind the fact the night before he wanted to be left alone, but then shows up on the Today show the next morning.

Hopefully there are laws that can actually put him in jail for a while for the fraud he committed, which resulted in costly activities for local authorities.

Charges to be filed.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/18/us/18balloon.html It's only a class 3 misdemeanor, yet I hope they bankrupt his ass to pay for all the cost to chase a damn balloon. Congrats buddy, you got the attention you so desired. Probably would have been cheaper to take out a few commercials. BTW...here is the launch of the balloon. Totally staged. Hell, Falcon is probably holding the damn video camera. On top of that, the whole family is there to see it. So we are supposed to believe they thought the kid climbed into a helium filled balloon, and the thing took off with him in it. Yet instead the kid, who did nothing wrong, hid in the attic above the garage (which the police decided not to check because they thought there was no way in hell a 6 year old could get up there without help).

Rightfully deserving of at least douchebaggery along with that misdemeanor.
