The head of the Cartoon Network resigned Friday following a marketing stunt that caused a terrorism scare in Boston and led police to shut down bridges and send in the bomb squad.

He said he regretted what had happened and felt ''compelled to step down, effective immediately, in recognition of the gravity of the situation that occurred under my watch.''

This seems a little drastic for the situation

More than a little drastic. Fucking retarded is more like it. He should have said "Chill out Boston, we'll give you all some free cartoons for a month to help, ok?" Totally lame.
