Behold the single image that caused a bunch of retards to think it was a bomb which caused the start of the death of western animation.
>>
I remember the interview with the guys that set it up.
They were either stoned out of their gourds or completely taking the piss. All they did was talk about their hair.

It begs the question, if law enforcement could respond that fast to a Lite-Brtie, where the fuck were they during the marathon?

It was post 9/11 and boomers were still panicking.

CN would've gone to shit either way, let's be honest.
>>
>>151004958
Helping set up the actual explosives, duh
>>
>>151004850
I mean, considering that people wouldn't have been that paranoid without 9/11 having happened in the first place, you could just as easily make an argument that 9/11 was the 9/11 of /co/.
>>
>>151004897
They were a fucking embarrassment
>>
>>151004850
The funny thing is that this gets blamed for the decline of the channel and lack of future content, of course a convenient excuse. No one ever saying that the great recession was the reason for this decline

Wrong. They took the situation very seriously

The boston bomb scare incident was 9

out of 11!

It still feels surreal that Stuart Snyder sawed off Florida.

You guys need to stop making threads centered around Dobson-tier logic

Tbf, it screwed CN

I really don't know if Adult Swim getting their budget cut ended western animation.

I would start with tyhe first meeting where a tech bro convinced a major studio CEO to abandon everything cable, Bluray, and theater release for a subscription streaming service. Pretending that imitating netflix would make up for all of that combined.

>>151007229
CN and its hateful fart cartoons being diminished is anything BUT "destroying western animation".

Also wasnt this whole incident caused because the guy hanging these was a few feet away from cops when they showed up and instead fled to call his boss or something?

The 2008 recession killed western animation

Look up “hateful fart cartoon” with the quotes

>>151008157
That was a based show

>>151004958
The signs were up for several days before the Boston police did anything, and they only responded because someone called 911 about them
>>
>>151004850
It must have been surreal to see this and not know what it is. It's like when something goes wrong with your computer and you assume a hacker did it.

>>151004850
Err is doing that as hard as he can.

Still saw the movie in theaters with my buddies, only like 10-15 people in whole theater when Movie Film For Theaters came out.

/b/ used to remind me of adult swim.

Now /b/ reminds me of early 90s porn board with gifs and the worst effeminate creep fucks imaginable lurking.

/b/ is dead women, glowies, and activists killed it. Only the logfag remains.

Err

>>151004897
It's typical to be advised by a lawyer not to talk about a case where you're the suspect, but a press conference had been set up, so they decided to make light of the whole fiasco by talking about 70s hair.

Arrest yourself and go to bed granny.

They jumped the gun too soon. If you repeated this campaign in the same cities today it would be noticed and posted online quickly, and no one would mistake a random digital display for a bomb.
>>
Menino was such a retard, I'm amazed his cause of death wasn't forgetting to breathe.
>>
>>151004897
>or completely taking the piss
It was this. The whole reaction was ridiculous, so they decided to be ridiculous in turn.
>>
>>151005027
It was 2007. We were well past the 9/11 panic phase.

>>151009336
4chan needs to set about destroying the CIA like we destroyed SomethingAwful and Gaia.

In the years around the scare, LED throwies (LEDs taped to a couple of coin cell batteries and a magnet) were a street art thing so seeing random lights on metal structure wasn't rare

And with Boston's panic-driven dumbfuckery, this huehue was brought in to dismantle everything good about CN...

Wrong, Stuart Snyder saved CN. Under his watch, we got shows like:
>Adventure Time
>Generator Rex
>Scooby Doo: Mystery Inc
>Young Justice
>MAD
>Ben 10: Ultimate Alien
>Sym-Bionic Titan
>Regular Show
>Robotomy
>Gumball
>Problem Solverz
>ThunderCats 2011
>Looney Tunes Show
>Almost Naked Animals
>Secret Mountain Fort Awesome
>Green Lantern
>DC Nation
>Ben 10: Omniverse
>Teen Titans Go
>Uncle Grandpa
>Steven Universe
>Clarence
>Over the Garden Wall
>We Bare Bears (last show greenlit)

Compare that to the previous president Jim Samples, who got rid of the 90s Cartoon Cartoons and replaced them with flat-out mediocre shows like Camp Lazlo, Puffy AmiYumi, Squirrel Boy, and My Gym Partner's a Monkey, took down classic cartoon blocks like Toonheads and Late Night Black & White, was the original pusher of live-action on CN with Re-Animated, and pushed Fred Fredburger to become CN's mascot.

How so?
The leadership change caused a schizo that worked directly under Vince McMahon to fuck the whole network up with CNreal which would eventually lead to 24 hour TTG marathons.
I don't think it could get worse than what we got
>>
>>151013198
CN started declining before they went full babby mode. They simply have no idea how to compete with online slop with the budget that Warner Bros is willing to give them.
>>
>>151011296
>Adventure Time
The first show on the list and already you proved that anon right.

filling out err tight little boypussy

This describes everyone involved with early adult swim including Mike Lazzo himself.

Exaggerated. Shitty lineups and bad ideas killed western animation.

>Robotboy first thing in the morning on weekends who the fuck asked for this
>Catscratch
>CN Real
>Nickelodeon stopped broadcasting and told everyone to go outside
>the infamous TTG schedule
>Juniper Lee
>over reliance on Spongebob
>no website games to promote their shows like the late 90's/early 2000s
>Calarts
>Instead of making a proper Jimmy Neutron show it became Planet Sheen
>Dropped the ball on Fairly Odd Parents

Too many young people nowadays who don't have the balls to do anything physical or even illegal such as poisons.
Take note how nobody is taking down 4chan despite "everyone" knowing where the developers live .... well everyone would know if they bothered fucking googling. I think most of these young retards don't even know who did the hack, let alone how it was hacked, let alone where to search for info on 4chan's devs.
