If I were on the train, and I took it in the past, I'd be pretty pissed to hear that. After all, 25 people died in that. Nevertheless, at least they had the balls to cut to a newscast rather than bars and tones. OR PAUL MOYER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCAUTVNBC10 408 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I agree that was one of those "too soon" moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thafernykid 2 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I'm not really sure if the routine was about "trains crashing." He was talking about the LHC and the particle experiment. I do think it is inappropriate to use trains for that joke though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, I did get to see the joke via Hulu, and it was in bad taste, for SoCal residents, but it's Late Night Television, it really doesn't matter.
