A friend of mine forwarded this "investigative news report" from Salt Lake City to me and I just had to share it. It's about this "new subculture" that's sweeping teens called "emo." It would be funny if the alarmist tone and misinformation in it weren't so scary:

And yes, they cite Death Cab's "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" as an example of an emo song that encourages suicide. I swear I'm not making this up.

Hahaahhahahahha so funny that they present it like a disease or something? Let's create some panic, shall we? Yup, parents should watch out for emo, not raising their children right to avoid any of this. Yup, that's it. Not. (btw I've been pronouncing "emo" wrong all along...)
