Richard Heene, father at the center of the Balloon Boy hoopla, called a press conference this morning to make a "big announcement." Then he didn't make one. Video below.Richard Heene called a new conference in Fort Collins, Colorado and once he had reporters waiting with baited breath, he took out a cardboard box and asked them to put their questions inside. He then said that he would be back later to answer them. The only thing he did do was assure them that the balloon incident was NOT a hoax.
Oh, he also said the family does not have cable. As an entertainment website, we are appalled.
Story developing. We'll keep you posted when Richard Heene reemerges from his house.

Make it stop. Go away.
Cut coverage. Their 15 minutes is up. This is a joke! Put your time to other stories about true entertainment. Not on wannabe's.
I agree, their 15 mins is up!!
They are playing with the media!!! lol I agree cut coverage
This eccentric family were twice on the television show "Wife Swap". Media hungry, for sure. Ha!
You know .. the more coverage this family gets, the more likely it is that someone somewhere WILL give them a reality show. DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN.
Rick was already a popular guy on certain cam sites.His Doormat wife really needs to take his webcam away,but on the other hand..he is hot without much clothes on!!
unless she can cough up 8 babies at once---with no means to support them---not interested
i think its crazy for this kind of thing to happen to anyone. what a shame.
the wife does kinda seem like the ultimate doormat! :(
