Bolivian TV airs LOST footage as Air France crash

What in the world are they smoking in Bolivia these days?

A Bolivian news station forever soiled its credibility last week by airing screen captures from the pilot episode of Lost, and claiming it was “exclusive images” recovered from the digital camera of a dead passenger from the Air France flight that crashed on June 1st. (I tell ya, you couldn’t make up stuff like this.) The news agency in question is claiming to be victims of a hoax, and yet none of them seemed to notice that the Lost images depict a daytime plane crash, while the Air France tragedy occurred at night. Not to mention the very obvious presence of actress Evangeline Lilly in the forefront of the supposed “photographs.”

Watch the footage below, and then decide for yourself just how dumb one has to be to fall for such an obvious prank…
