Media: Hit or Miss - Latvian mobile phone firm's staged meteorite crash blows up in its face

Fake crater - A mobile phone company in Latvia was slammed for staging a 'meteorite crash'. Tele2 said the stunt was designed to give people something 'creative and exciting' to talk about. But the Latvian government was not amused and said it would cut its contract with the company in protest. Tele2 has promised to reimburse the nation for the cost of sending military units and scientists to investigate the ten-metre-wide crater.
