    Is this a fake CNN website?

    Hello Everyone,

    Has anyone heard of a UFO that's crashed in NEW JERSEY, it's been reported only on this website
    www.todaycnn.com
    but I can't find any news of it on CNN.com.

    Thanks.

    Broomiebar:
    Why don't you try contacting the people at CNN and letting them know about it? They might want to try to warn people about this site.

    Another one of those rogue Inktomi sites.

    Seriously, it's hosted by a Yahoo subsidiary, but privately registered to "visa card" out of Emeryville, CA.

    Might contact Inktomi, too.

    since I enjoy watching the network.

    brokencrow: if you can get me an "abuse" address, I'll send one to the web site hoster.

    Ok,
    If I email [email protected][/email] it'll go to the site owner right, (who is the person pulling this stuff??). So the yahoo people are the ones to contact?

    I want to make sure I'm not contacting the wrong people
