We are on the verge of a flue pandemic but holy shit, it appears to be Popeye's failed fried chicken special that seems to be the real news. First, Mark Emery shoots me the following Youtube link:
Is the story really about Popeye's not having enough chicken, or is it about black people getting mad about not getting cheap fried chicken. I don't know. It's weird in an uncomfortable way. So naturally it's time to watch a similar video, except this time the action is just down the street:
I don't know what is more contemptuous- the fact that the story was deemed newsworthy in the first place, or the demonic glee in the Fox reporters face as he rains condescension on everyone involved, from the consumer ("well, it looks like they got you to buy some chicken anyway"), the store manager, and the franchise owner. He seemed overjoyed by it. I hope Walter Kronkite's ghost haunts this man and punishes him for the highest crimes of douche-baggery.
Hurl's guitar lesson will be posted tomorrow.
