Wonkette
If you were watching CNN around 7:15 ET then you saw this frightening hologram beast named “Jessica Yellin” appear from the planet Saturn to talk about, uh, Obama and the elections. So… who the hell greenlit this? BILL BENNETT? [Philadelphia Examiner]
Kinda looks like Katie Couric.
The videophone of tomorrow, today!
Help me, Obama. You’re my only hope.
Help me Wolf Wan Blitzer. You’re our only hope!
But the nerd in me is actually sad I missed this…
“Help us, Wan-Obama” Princess Leia updated!
Help me, Wolf Blitzer, you’re my only hope.
Obi-wan, you are our only hope.
Look! My hologram left a comment on Wonkette! WoooooooOOOooooOOOooo!
Next it’s going to bend over and insert something into the droid, right?
Even worse, they spelled it “holligram of Jennifer Yellin” in the ticker at the bottom of my livestream browser window.
I for one am disappointed that she didn’t open with, “Help me, Wolf Blitzer, you’re my only hope!”
Sassette: I am also disappointed that I didn’t check to see that joke had already been made four billion times before I made it myself.
Jesus Christ. Nerd-fest from 7:42p to 7:43p.
And I couldn’t even be the first one in.
Take 1 shot for every Wonkette commenter who made the same star wars joke…
I love the blue outline and the low quality. It’s like they TRIED to make it look like Star Wars.
No no no no no no no!
Just say NO!
obama-wan-kenobi
Couldn’t tell via the internet if it was horrific or lame. That situation room is one little shop of tech horrors.
Wolf does sort of look like an Ewok.
This is a preview of things to come. We will all have holographic Obamas in our home in the near future to help us out around the house.
Shoot it!!!
I just realized that that sounds racist. Oops.
The word inane doesn’t begin to capture the inanity of this.
Neon Trotsky: Don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll see it again.
better than that hideous Avril Lavigne headpiece John Norris was wearing
Wolf actually said “Thanks Jessica, you are a great Hologram”.
Battlestar Gallactica did it better!
The real mystery is how CNN calls states for WALNUTS when that one is running ahead of him. I mean, Barry was never gonna win Racist South Carolina, but still…
holograph THIS cnn. stop wasting our time with nerd products.whats the point of sending the repoter to chicago when you can just keep her in the studio
So, Jessica Yellin is, like, a replicant or something?
umlaut75: I mean… what else CAN you say about this?
holograph THIS cnn. stop wasting our time with nerd products.whats the point of sending the repoter to chicago if there are going to beam her back to the studio..jeez.
You have got to be fucking kidding me.
Clearly CNN has some kind of unschooled rural PA bitter running their CNN.com live ticker because the text on screen referred to it as a “Holligram.”
Saw it on cnn.com live video feed, wtf?
“Please state the nature of the electoral emergency.”
She is SO not jellin’
That Stupid Ass Joe Biden is forcasting Suiside Bombings to start in major US Cities as soon as Bush is out.
Does that make me look good or what???
Our scout ships have reached Richmond, VA. They found the remains of a McCain HQ, but they estimate that it has been deserted for some time. They are now conducting an extensive search of the surrounding counties.
Many Bothans died to bring us these electoral projections.
35 cameras . . . and each one adds how many pounds?
Jim writes that this crap appeared on CNN at 7:15 and his post is time-stamped 7:25. That seems pretty quick to me (seriously). Thanks for the breaking news! I think you scooped Rachel Maddow’s Ms. Information segment.
Is this the hologram that launched a thousand obnoxious Star Wars gags?
Oh, what the hell. I still think it’s hilarious.
Yeah, it was hilarious. Beam me up!
