Cable Pre$$titues OD'ing On Terror Alerts

[Presstitutes]

News about possible news dominates the cable news networks. There has been no terrorist strike, no explosion, no chemical attack, but the cable nets are in overdrive with wall-to-wall coverage of yet another "terrorist" threat. At what point do these people recover a sense of judiciousness, dignity and balance and let these terror scares (some of which are bogus) remain under the radar unless there's an actual attack or authorities request the media's help in mobilizing citizens?

3. They are having a Terragasm

Terragasm: The breathless reporting by the mainstream media of unsubstantiated terrorist threats with the intention of driving ratings and providing sensational coverage.

My own little definition!
