I don't like her, never did. Her personal style is abrasive and self-aggrandizing.
OTOH, Trumpmania starts to wear thin after a while, even for FNC staff that are used to harping on the same stories without any real new facts coming out day after day, sometimes for weeks at a time. It has to get a little dull after a while. I've noticed before that FNC staff seem almost happy with a big new news story, like the bombing of the Egyptian airliner or the downing of the Malaysian jet over Ukraine or the suicide pilot of the Lufthansa plane flying into the mountain. They finally seem happy to have something new to talk about instead of facing another dreary rehash of the same stories they had been reporting for weeks.
She's not as bad as Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity on PMS...
I think she's worse overall. I can stand Hannity for short periods, O'Reilly less so with his sad-ass regulars like Dennis Miller and Watter's World and the crusty CBS sidekick Bernie Goldberg.
Kelly is just abrasive. I don't often dislike media figures quite so viscerally but she is repellant. I feel sorry for anyone who has to work for or with her. I can't grasp why FNC thinks she is so great, any more than I can grasp why that idiot Sheperd Smith is the second-highest paid FNC news employee when I think he's obnoxious or useless, especially during any breaking news situation.
I don't understand why anyone thought there was a boy in that balloon. Is he supposed to be sealed up inside breathing helium?
His parents called 911, I think.
So the authorities had to act.
I think the father eventually served time in jail and got hit with fines for false reporting and such. He was a reality show nutjob and it was all a big self-promotion scheme.
Richard Heene's attorney announced on November 12, 2009 that both parents intended to plead guilty to the charges filed against them, for which the prosecutor would recommend probation.[60] The attorney's statement said that the threat of deportation of his wife, Mayumi Heene, who is a Japanese citizen, was a factor in the plea negotiations.[61] On November 13, Richard Heene pled guilty to a felony charge of attempting to influence a public servant. Mayumi Heene did not appear with him, but still faced a misdemeanor charge of false reporting to authorities.[62] However, on January 7, 2010, Richard Heene told authorities that he only pled guilty to prevent his wife's potential deportation.[63]
On December 23, 2009, a judge sentenced Richard Heene to 90 days in jail and 100 hours of community service. He was also ordered to write a formal apology to the agencies that searched for Falcon. Mayumi Heene was sentenced to 20 days in jail, to be served through jail-supervised community service for two days a week. Mayumi was also allowed to begin her sentence after her husband's ended in order to ensure her children would be cared for.[64] The Heenes were also banned from receiving any profits from the hoax for several years.[65] Richard Heene was also ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution.[13]
Yeah, but they followed the thing for miles and miles with close up images on camera. It was obvious there was no basket or anything that could hold a boy. So, I guess they all believed he was sealed tight inside the balloon breathing helium.

I would guess the pilots of the choppers would have known that from their first close look at it. Clearly, it was a toy UFO balloon and probably didn't have enough lift for even a small child.
But they had already been ordered into the chase so they naturally followed through.
