Anyone watch Fox news?
Did you see the Geraldo thing last night? He was reporting for the eye of the hurricane like a jackass journalist. One guy had a wind meter and was like "its 120mph gusts" and geraldo was like "I beleive our meter is broken, I don't beleive you, I think its rotating wrong, thats not a reasonable number" then BAM he got clocked in the head by some object moving at what turned out to be 110mph, priceless. I had a good laugh.

Tell me someone has video of that online, I'd love to see Geraldo take a blunt object to the head, especially right after making some jackass comment like that.
Unfortunately, this is the state of news "journalism" these days. It's become so much more about advertising revenue and ratings that reports are doing absolutely retarded things just to get attention and pick up a couple extra eyeballs. Fact is, story with enough substance to generate big viewership numbers don't happen everyday, so you get people doing stupid shit just to stay in the public eye and justify their paycheck. No offense to Texas, but unless you all drown, hurricanes aren't really big news anymore. So now we get these idiots out there standing in front of flying Volvo's to just get a story. Sorry, but no story is worth getting killed over. And all this is coming from someone in the media. I hope you learned something today, Geraldo.

I've found video of him getting knocked on his ass by a wave, is that what you were talking about, or did he get clocked in the head too?
