Glad you’re with me, but I was quoting someone else.
I watched the gal a couple of times and she didn’t know what to do. I think it was real, but then why are you thanking Ed for checking again? I hope that means it’s authentic.

thank you for following up, Ed!

I called it. So did Bambi.

Meh, some people don’t just have active “fake-dar” like us three do I guess.

(Fake-dar. like Gay-dar, but for internet hoaxes instead of latent homosexuality)

Maybe if you could explain why it’s so obviously fake rather than stating that an adult wouldn’t talk that way (which is already contradicted by someone who claims this is common in the industry), then maybe people would take your claims more seriously.

Yes, anyone CAN dub a video over. It’s extremely easy, so much so that I’m sure I could do it if I had the right voice to use. However, that alone doesn’t constitute proof.

Esthier, where is YOUR proof that this IS accurate? Show me ANY other source where this has been verified. Currently the only source is liveleak.com, which is nothing more than a glorifed break.com

.:facepalm:. come on!

I’ve spent over 20 years in broadcast control rooms, and this is absolutely nothing compaired to some days I’ve had.

It’s simple. Ever been inside a tv station? The host was looking at the MONITOR, not the producer. The ‘producer’ wouldn’t be anywhere near the set, so why would she be glancing over? She was looking at the monitor to see if the reporter was responding in some way, then realized she wasn’t.

Haven’t you ever seen any Jimmy Kimmel videos? They take stuff from the home shopping network and add their own voices to it. They write the script according to what the orginal reactions are. It’s like if she had looked down at her notes and I added “LOOK AT THE CAMERA, NOT AT YOUR NOTES”, and you would call that proof that it’s authentic? I don’t know why I’m so upset about this, but there is NO common sense in here and it’s the first time I’ve ever truly noticed it.

This is scary..

And the fact that ed took absolutely no time to proof it was accurate says a lot about him as well. Man. What’s going on guys? This is crap liberal blogs do! “Oooh, funny fox news clip! Lets post it and call it true even if it IS fake!!11!”…

Hell, they’ll probably advance him to co-executive producer on Countdown.

Yeah, news guys make flight traffic controllers seem like Zen masters.

I think it has something to do with all the coffee.

Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit amphetamines.

Bambi is right. Big old fake-out. But a pretty funny fake out. If you like toilet humor, that is.

This kind of language is the purview of a person with no command of the English language.

You’ve been duped, and I hope you can verify that it is a fake and update the post. This blog has more credibility than 99% of other blogs on the internet. Please stay that way.

How in the heck can’t you believe this was a true recording? Look at the gal on air, she can hardly believe her ears and didn’t know what to do with it.

I was hypnotized by the brunette bombshell newsbunny.

Don’t be fooled Alden, she smirks when she mentions Governor Palin’s name. Hard core leftist reporter.

And as for all the outrage: let he who is without sin…and all that. You’ve never used those words or gone into a rage? Then God bless you, you’re really someone special. Unique, even.

Am I a “troofer” for calling this bogus? That seems to be the mindset around HA these days.
