Celebrity in today's America is a fleeting thing. People want it so badly they will pretend their small child hitched a ride on a weather balloon, will make people eat disgusting bugs and most recently bring an uninvited couple to a State Dinner at the White House.
Now comes word that the White House party crashers are shopping around their story to various networks.
A pox on the news company (and you know someone will find a way to pay these idiots) that sacrifices its ethics for a one-time spike in ratings.
There's a lot wrong with this story, especially the appalling lack of security for the President and his guests, but rewarding these two for this hoax would be the topper.
The biggest punishment for this couple would be the agreement by all news outlets that the couple's name is never used in any future stories. Now that would be punishment.

I wonder if these people are related to Mathias Rust, or if they were paid by Sacha Baron Cohen to do this. A lag in security like this makes me nervous, even though it's a president I despise.
I want every President protected, whether I agree with them or not. This was inexcusable.
