Hot air balloon floats high above the ground, a six year old Colorado boy is believed to be inside. The headlines seemed like a promising story. Yahoo, AOL, MSN, FoxNews, had one featured story, with such headlines, leaving Americans countrywide wondering about this six year old boy. Later on October, 15, 2009, the date of the boy's supposed takeoff in his hot air baloon, the balloon crashed and the boy was not found inside. You would think this must mean that the boy never was in the balloon in the first place, what a relief! Specuators from various news networks interpreted it differently, saying the boy may have fell out of the balloon during its flight. They were wrong. The six year old boy was found hiding in a cardboard box, in the attic of his garage, according to Macomb daily. Lately, some topics on news shows seem unimportant, as if there is no purpose for their headlines, and that there is nothing beneficial, to their publications online, and their coverage on television. This story seemed to be a perfect example of that, and left me wondering, why is this so important, who cares? Then when it was released the boy was hiding in his garage attic, in cardboard box, I wasn't surprised. What do you think about this story, and shories like this, that seem like they have no importance. They are only slightly entertaining, and leave a person wondering, why?
