Atlanta Makes War On Boston, Part 2

Boston law enforcement triggered a city-wide panic attack today when they mistook a stealth marketing campaign for Aqua Teen Hunger Force for bombs.
"Based on the information we have, it appears to be a hoax," said Gov. Deval Patrick's spokesman, Jose Martinez.
Except it wasn't a hoax. A hoax is intentional trickery. Turner's ad people obviously did not intend to make passersby think that it's Aqua Teen ad gizmos were bombs.

I'm glad that the Boston police investigated things, but a misunderstanding is not a hoax.

No word yet that I can see on the likelihood of terrorists marking their bomb sites with goddamn neon.
