24: Season 5: Episode 22 (4:00am - 5:00am)

Seriously, why didn’t they use their magic phones to forward it straight to TheSmokingGun.com?

The last three were too late to make the early edition (hmmm, actually, I’m not too sure about the natural gas plant, but definitely the last two). The only way Foreign Policy gets headline coverage is if Michael Jackson stayed inside all day. CTU covered up the nerve gas - and more than 9 people died from gunshots on the L.A. freeway that afternoon. Not enough bodycount. Martial law is good - get the ire of the people flowing. However, going with the old maxim of “If it bleeds, it leads”, Palmer’s assassination will rule the paper.

I think it would have to be:

“Ten Executive Newspaper Editors Die From Excitement-Related Cardiac Arrest”

:wink:

Let’s not forget that since the curfew is still in effect, there wouldn’t be anyone to deliver the papers anyway.

All of those headlines could hold equal billing on the LA Times’ website. :slight_smile:

I’m pretty sure that “Hijacked Plane Full of Diplomats Lands on Freeway” would be a contender.

Bah. If I had my druthers, the L.A. Times would say “Computer nerd chick tasers guy in hotel lobby. Twice.” Film at 11.

Just suddenly had this mental image of Nina popping her head out of the grave and singing…

“IIIIIIII’m Alll-right! Don’t nobody worry bout me!”

You forgot:

“Terrorist Anarchy at Ontario Airport”

“Big Ass Jet lands on the 118…seriously”

Or maybe playing it for everyone i the hallway when he walked in to verify it was there, and to get more witnesses. Might be a good thing to do before you go national with it.

So I went on vacation, set my vcr and I guess that damn president(no-not Logan) screwed me over. My tape cut out when Henderson walked into Malina’s house and told him CTU was all over the place. Wha’happened??
I read the FOX/24 recap, but it was lacking. Did Jack crash thru the sunroof? Henderson’s still alive, what about Malina?

Depends on whether any pretty teenagers go missing in exotic locales.

Oh happy day!
