NRO on ABC News Report: "Needlessly hysterical"

We're seeing plenty of reaction coming in from around the country on the ABC News story, and to say the least, the network is getting hit very hard. Here's Stephen Spruiell from National Review Online's Media Blog:

That said, if ABC had just called it “Radioactive Road Rules” instead, this would make a great reality show.
