Tabloid Nation
I guess I hadn't realized just how long it's been since I watched Nightline, but shit, they've basically devolved into the teevee version of the Weekly World News. I'm sure there's an upcoming quest for the Batboy's lair. Maybe they can get Kirk Cameron and Ron Jeremy (or failing that, Geraldo Rivera) to help out.
