    I thought the last season of Sunny was their weakest one. There were some funny moments but overall it felt like they have run out of steam a little. Their real problem was being so excellent that they basically have nowhere to go but down.

    Media needs to stop dick teasing that they found the plane.

    They didn't find shit!

    Fox News is 100% sure it's terrorism and that the plane's parked in Pakistan.

    CNN still believes in the Black Hole theory.

    MSNBC found picture of a giant cock which they need to shove up their ass.

    or, OR, you could stop paying attention to really, really shitty media outlets, including (and especially) the three that you mentioned.

    Crazy idea, I know, but nobody HAS to watch that idiocy.

    Honestly tho, who am I to complain at this point?

    Its not that I disagree, I just cant fault them for eventually falling back to the realm of mortals.

    Im holding out that this plane was beamed away by an alien craft and all of the passengers will return soon and we can shake hands with the aliens...just like the ending in Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind.

    In fact, im surprised CNN hasn't brought up this possibility yet

    They are now saying satellite images show that it went down in the Southern Indian ocean.

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...washingtonpost

    If there was a mechanical issue how in the fuck does it end up there??

    It passed over hundreds of airports, land, and no emergency call was ever made. And it is thousands of miles off course.

    There is no way the pilots were in control if it ended up that far away in the dead opposite direction. Manes no sense.

    You can't even TALK about Fox News on this issue imo. I know Fox can do some crazy shit sometimes, but that CNN black hole shit just takes the cake on this topic. The first time I saw that CNN video, I honestly thought it was some kind of a level, but no, this "news reporter" is actually debating the idea that this plane was sucked up by a black hole. I mean, forget the rest of the earth or anything else in the vicinity of our multi billion mile solar system...the black hole surely was zeroed in on the fucking Malaysian plane and nothing else. If I was that dude, id update my resume and start looking for other employment. But you know CNN won't fire him...



    Back to Fox. IMO, i know they do some stupid shit...just like the rest. That aside, they also CRUSH the ratings against the others. The last time I checked, they actually generate higher ratings than the other big ones combined. Some might say, "yeah well they are stupid and stupid people watch them". Im sorry, while there may be plenty of stupid people that watch them, you don't get consistent year after year ratings that crushes the competition by generating bad news stories. A news station might be able to pull off good ratings by generating crap in the short term, but certainly not in the long term. Sooner or later people will smarten up and the ratings would show that. That's just my take.

    Fairly certain that lowest common denominator news media would be that which focused on a voter base that has the highest HS drop out rate.

    following a new lead the search has now been moved 1k kms NE of previous area, seems any debris sighted over previous weeks is not related to the plane crash and any searches have been a waste of time.

    I tell ya, If I had millions to throw around, liked to pull massive pranks, and nothing better to do with my time, I might have to pull some bullshit and find a bunch of jet airplane scrap parts....paint them up accordingly, and fly them out to a designated hot spot and drop them in the water, and watch hilarity ensue - especially dumbass entities like CNN salivating over the discovery. Even better....maybe find some company who wants to sponsor the prank for some big time publicity, paint their name on the parts, then when everyone finds these, they will be shown on world news. How is that for a potential promo.

    OK, So im somewhat wasted right now, but I think you get the idea...


    Yeah, and im still cooking my fuckin NY Strip steak bitches...it will be going on in a bit. I know its fucking late but who gives a shit. I will post in the food porn thread when done.

    An Australian vessel searching for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane has detected signals consistent with those from "black box" flight recorders. The Ocean Shield ship picked up the signal twice, once for more than two hours, said Angus Houston, a retired air chief marshal leading the search. He called it the "most promising lead" so far. But he said more information was needed: "We haven't found the aircraft yet and we need further confirmation." Malaysia's acting transport minister, Hishammuddin Hussein, said he had been briefed by Air Chief Marshal Houston and was "cautiously hopeful that there will be a positive development in the next few days if not hours".

    ACM Houston said the signals were detected using the towed pinger locator deployed on the Ocean Shield. Two separate detections occurred, he said. The first was held for two hours and 20 minutes before being lost. The ship then turned around and on the return leg detected the signal again for 13 minutes. "On this occasion two distinct pinger returns were audible. Significantly this would be consistent with transmissions from both the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder," ACM Houston said. "I'm much more optimistic than I was a week ago," he said. "We are now in a very well defined search area, which hopefully will eventually yield the information that we need to say that [Malaysia Airlines flight] MH370 might have entered the water just here."

    The Ocean Shield was still in the area, about 1,040 miles (1,680 km) north-west of the Australian city of Perth, but had not been able to reacquire the signals since, he said. The position of the signals needed to be fixed, ACM Houston said. Once that happened, the Ocean Shield could lower the Bluefin 21 underwater autonomous vehicle to try to locate wreckage on the sea floor. The signal had been heard in sea with a depth of 4,500m, he added, which was at the limit of the capability of the Bluefin 21. He cautioned that the next steps would take time. "It could take some days before the information is available to establish whether these detections can be confirmed as being from MH370," he said. "In very deep oceanic water, nothing happens fast."

    The search operation is in a race against time as the flight recorders' batteries are due to run out, meaning a signal would no longer be emitted. A Chinese search vessel, Haixun 01, also said it briefly heard signals over the weekend in a different search area. Those signals are now being investigated with the help of a British naval vessel, HMS Echo, which is equipped with sophisticated sound-locating equipment. Reports said the crew of the Chinese ship had been using a sonar device called a hydrophone to pick up sounds. Experts said it was technically possible but unlikely that the sounds heard with this equipment related to the missing plane. Chris Portale, a director of the US company Dukane which makes the device that emits signals from flight recorders, said looking for the Malaysian plane's "black boxes" was like "looking for a suitcase on the side of a mountain" but under water. But he said he thought searchers were now in the right area and had a "very good hope" of spotting debris, if the signal was from the aircraft. "I believe they have got three to four more days of good, solid output [from the flight recorders]," he told the BBC's Today Programme.
    would be pretty insane if they have found the wreckage but guess we'll hear more in the coming days in terms of where these signals are coming from

    Even if they find the black box, which might be tricky with the beacon batteries only lasting a month, there's still 2 problems.

    One is that it only holds 2 hours of data. If the last 2 hours were just gliding into the sea, that's useless.

    Second - if the plane was deliberately sabotaged by the pilots, they could have pulled the circuit breaker for the black box which again would render it useless.

    It would record not just changes for the last 2 hours but the state of the craft and its sundry systems for the last 2 hours, which would be profoundly useful.

    Second - if the plane was deliberately sabotaged by the pilots, they could have pulled the circuit breaker for the black box which again would render it useless.
    A question that profound being answered under these circumstances is the literal opposite of useless.
