1. Actually she was arrested for breaking into someone else's pc and destroying their property.
The reporting on this has been stupid tabloid bullshit.

3. Thanks for watching the video before commenting...oh wait, never mind.
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 05:00 PM by ihavenobias
Cenk makes that exact point in this clip. I went out of my way to put "absurd news" in the subject line because it was from the show's third hour "Absurd News Alert" section where they spend a little time talking about off-beat, strage items.

It's a nice break after 2+ hours of almost straight politics.

PS---I also put a ? mark in the subject line rather than a period.

7. Ok fine I watched and the replacement for Jill
commits the same tabloid bullshit error as everyone else and still doesn't get that breaking into somebody else's pc, stealing their account and destroying their property is actually a crime, nor does Cenk seem to get it either. What ever happened to Jill?

She's pushing the 'jailed for online murder' bullshit.

You owe me for the 30 seconds I just wasted.

8. (Insert Username Joke Here)
Warren, if you only watched 30 seconds you didn't see Cenk clarify, thus wasting 30 seconds of MY time for making me reply to your two comments. :)

As for Jill, where the hell have you been, she left over 1.5 years ago. And Ana kicks ass and everyone loves her (except for you).

I'm not saying anything, I'm just sayin'.

;)

9. I haven't watched or listened to them for two years.
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 05:17 PM by Warren Stupidity
She is as annoying as Jill was. I can take Cenk, most of the time. "everyone" loves Dancing With The Stars too.

30 seconds was 29 seconds too much.

11. LMAO...
I don't understand why some people bother to comment on certain videos/articles if they haven't viewed/read them.....or to make a smart-ass comment. Seems to be a waste of time, to me. :eyes:

6. LOL. Hey, I watched the clip!
I did not know that Cenk was such a nerd! Too nerdy for dungeons and dragons?!

14. If it was their bank accounts...
...I bet they'd have a different opinion of hacking. Hacking is illegal for a reason. Yes, five years is too long for this crime but it is still a crime. It was destruction of private property, invasion of privacy, possibly even criminal trespass.

Still, I bet like many "divorces", this didn't really come out of nowhere. I bet this guy wanted away from this woman. And who can blame him if she thinks it's okay to do things like this?

15. Trust me, Cenk knows
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 06:39 PM by ihavenobias
He's had his identity stolen more than once in the past, and created many, many problems for him.

Thankfully I've never had the displeasure (knock on wood!).

17. I'm still wondering if that one "remote hunting" site in Texas that is online...
... will be the site of the first interstate online murder, if someone who gets control of the remote controlled gun happens to see a person walk into the video camera frame and shoots him/her instead of some other wild critters.
