Stay out of it, Nick Lachey!
One of my favorite moments from The Soup was this clip from One Tree Hill. Can anyone explain what has happened to quality writing on tv these days?

I know we’ve probably all seen this by now, and it was even featured on The Soup this weekend, but it really is one of the funniest clips on YouTube. I had a moment exactly like this when I was about 11 years old. Thankfully, that was long before YouTube.
Anyone who watches The Soup knows about the “Spaghetti Cat” incident. About a week ago The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet did a story about binge drinking when they suddenly cut to this:

Well it seems that the strange picture was actually a “bleep photo” used as a cut-to when someone says something that’s deemed inappropriate for tv. A spokesperson for Fox told Media Bistro that viewers could expect a lot more of these bizarre “bleep photos” in the future on broadcast tv.
Media Bistro’s reply:
That isn’t distracting. That isn’t trivializing for a news show. They’re literally going to have dancing monkeys in lieu of a curse word – a cross word – a word?! The future just got a lot dimmer…and suddenly it looks a lot like LOLcats.
I couldn’t agree more. I don’t see how random cuts to strange images are any better than an actual bleep, a cut to black, or just letting the precious virgin ears of America hear a dirty word! I can only hope that it was a mistake and now this story they’ve given is their way of covering up their glitch.
