In 2004, Dick explained his rationale. “I remember on that overnight shift I was supposed to read the news at 1 o’clock. I decided we didn’t really want to hear the Vietnam body count, so I started pulling really crazy things off the wire because we had to read a certain amount of news. So I’d pull off the hog report, which was a whole bunch of numbers. Or I’d read household tips or strange news stories.
