Prague's Franz Kafka International Named World's Most Alienating Airport

Old people reading this blog surely remember Bobbie Battista, one of the original anchors at CNN, who was a mainstay at the network for 20 years until Ted Turner sold the shop to Time-Warner. While it’s occasionally hard to tell if CNN is actual news these days (particularly when tuning into Headline News or watching Kiran Chetry on “American Morning”), Battista is doing them one better by now anchoring the Onion News Network.

And what’s completely awesome about this report on Franz Kafka International Airport is that Battista delivers it with the utmost in deadpan seriousness.
