Mind control




Acting like it hasn't known about such a thing for years now, Fox News reports that we can be controlled by remote control:
We wield remote controls to turn things on and off, make them advance, make them halt. Ground-bound pilots use remotes to fly drone airplanes, soldiers to maneuver battlefield robots.

But manipulating humans?

Prepare to be remotely controlled. I was....

I felt a mysterious, irresistible urge to start walking to the right whenever the researcher turned the switch to the right. I was convinced — mistakenly — that this was the only way to maintain my balance.

What a great bit of self-parody from Fox News! Oh, Fox News.

    Although Fox News IS evil, this story was written by an AP reporter, and appeared earlier in the week on CNN. Dumbass.
