Shaking It Up In East Texas

Last week, KLTV in East Texas posted a story here with some of the least impressive UFO footage I have seen since the last time I watched any of Billy Meier's awful fakes. When I watched the interview on the website (which I will post below), something reminded me of the recent Balloon Boy incident. In the modern age of communications, with so many media outlets and the distance between story and broadcast so short now, I expect to see more and more people trying to create their own stories around them. To me, this video is such an obvious fake.
It's pretty clear to me, that what we see here is nothing more than a digital video camera aimed a single bright source of light and purposely shaken to give the light the appearance of motion. The light, being so bright against a dark sky, leaves a ghost image as the camera is quickly jerked back and forth. I don't think it's any coincidence that the light streaks are longer during the time when the camera is more violently shaken and vice versa. While I can't be sure, the time frame, 6pm in the evening good be the planen Jupiter, which would stand out in the western sky during the evening hours. In the end, this is nothing more than a poorly executed hoax.
These are fun to check out and I'd like to look at more.
