Bigfoot? He’s not so elusive

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on June 21st, 2012

Real or not, Sasquatch is a larger-than-life figure on TV. It’s not so much a search for the creature as a hunt for ratings.

Imagine a hulking, growling, 8-foot-tall woodland creature so elusive that professional trackers can’t find it, scientists can only speculate about it and believers can’t prove — definitively — that it exists.

Hiding deep in the forest may be your modus operandi, Bigfoot, but Hollywood and Madison Avenue are pushing you — however reluctantly — into the spotlight.
