Well he was sentenced to some jail time and i think he deserved it.

Doing something like that for attention for a reality TV show?

What a joke.

I think every reporter who had anything to do with this story needs to serve jail time, not that guy. The first reports said he lost his balloon and his son was missing and it slowly escalated to that the boy was in the balloon. Later after it was recovered and the boy wasn't in it, all the "experts" chimed in saying it was impossible for that balloon to lift the boy at all. Where were they when the discovery was first made? Oh that's right, on standby while the "BREAKING NEWS" was constantly streaming. They want a story so bad, no matter how ridiculous and this guy gave them one and he is getting punished.

The media made a mockery of an entire nation of readers with that story and he becomes a scape goat. I'm not even going to read that article because it's more "news" produced by the "media".
