Over at the internet's best movie news website CHUD.com (where I write a blog from time to time), writer Devin Faraci was an excellent column about the idiocy of a local Fox News affiliate, which, through the miracle of investigative reporting, uncovered the shocking truth that Criss Angel (seen here as an Anne Rice cosplayer) doesn't really have supernatural powers. It seems Criss chained himself inside a building set to implode, and he only had a few minutes to break free and make it to a helicopter on the roof. The effect is that he doesn't break free, the building collapses on him, and he's found in the rubble unharmed. Fox News smelled a rat, so they strangled their fuel budget, fired up the Fox chopper, and taped an overhead shot of Criss sneaking into the rubble after the implosion. Congratulations, Fox News. Though I bet you feel silly about having Bill O'Reilly call for Criss' execution for sawing a woman in half right in front of a camera. More details here.
