Tonight on FOX 9 news - they're gonna tell us how this HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUT
Makes thousands of dollars from telemarketers!

This is no joke. They're parading a DROP OUT who found a way to sleaze off of others.

Sounds like another Bill Gates in the making. x(

Fuck this shit, this is the society we live in?!

2. He owns UPN29 as well.
He owned both stations (the parent company of both anyway) long before deciding that FOX9 sounds better than FOX29 and vice-versa with UPN.

Still, the article alone is disgraceful.

5. You are correct
they somehow "fill" an hour each night with pretty much nothing for the 9pm news. Nothing but a suburbanite's everday survival guide. Watch out, everyday things can kill you.

11. Truly is
Shouldn't they be discouraging this type of thing? Ugh. So disgusting. Our society is so lazy now days with learning. I get that way sometimes myself but I wouldn't ever drop out of school. If I get bored I'll take a little break and do something else or change major's. I wonder why they're doing this story.

9. I hate telemarketers too. But this kid is scum too...
Drops out of high school, no less.

He'd make a good lawyer.

But the telemarketer saying "there are better ways to make a living" had me wanting to hit the tv set too.

They're all garbage.

And you can bet they'll discontinue that federal law shortly as well. I almost hope so.
