Lost in 24

Are the producers of 24 trying to turn us into whisper-hearing Lost freaks?

From Wednesday's NY post:

On a scrap of paper - seen so briefly on TV it could only be read by eagle-eyed viewers who had posted the screen on the Internet - a seemingly random group of letters spells out "Jack is dead."

Update: I have zoomed in on the picture and decoded the message


Other
The Llama Butchers have their own "Jack Is Dead" theories.
