On what basis would the FCC be concerned?  The hoax rule (73.1217)
covers only "false information concerning a crime or a catastrophe",
which clearly does not apply, disappointed teenage girls
notwithstanding.  It wasn't a contest (73.1216).  It wasn't obscene
(73.4165 et seq.).  There is no general prohibition on broadcasting
false statements (many talk hosts would be on the beach if there
were), so where's the violation?
