Cable Networks Treat LiLo Probation Hearing as ‘Breaking News’

Lohan, back from Cannes, ordered to wear ankle monitor

Perhaps the producers at the three major cable networks are still buzzing over the 22-hour finale of "Lost."

But CNN, MSNBC and Fox all decided to treat Lindsay Lohan’s probation hearing — the one she missed while she was "stuck" in Cannes, claiming her passport was "stolen" — as live "breaking news" on Monday. (Oil slick? What oil slick?)

Lohan, who showed up to court late, was ordered to wear an alcohol-monitoring bracelet and submit to random drug testing.
