Did 10TV or 6 On Your Side fuck something up really badly that NBC4 is now all, "WE TAKE ACCURACY SERIOUSLY! LOOK AT US DOUBLE CHECKING FACTS! WE LOOK AT THERMOMETERS! WE CALL THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE SIX TIMES!"???

I laugh at that everytime. Isn't there a new tagline for the news too?

There needs to be youtube of Gahnal on the news losing his shit while on painkillers (someone has to have this!!!) and Bob Nunnaly at kegs and eggs with a buncha drunk dorm sluts.

A friend of mine from college is in the commercial. Speaking part.

Booker.

I've been trying to find the extended version too.

Mike Jackson sure seems sincere while yelling "This is the 5th time I've called!"-
Tho' he was probably inquiring as to the whereabouts of his lunch order-

That commercial never fails to crack me up. Something about all the stereotypical "reporter" talk reminds me of Videogum clip of Diddy on CSI: Miami.

I think the funniest thing is they want you to believe that talking-head, on-camera actors are reporters that do fact-checking.

And how could putting drugs in yr butt EVER not be funny?

"dont you get it?, if this storm shifts just 30 miles then we will be rained upon!..."

Fact checking? Hahah. The news is horrible. Weather is a 50/50 gamble.

And. Why cant they tell you stories in the 6 o'clock news that they have prepared for the 11 o'clock news? What if im tired? Then I just miss out?

Oh, and yeah. Sticking things in your ass to get high is in fact very funny.

funny commercial.

Mike Bowersock and his big hair interviewed for a job where I work one time. It was kind of sad really.

He says that there is no future in 'local news' with internet news taking over. :boohoo:

He's kind of like a boring robot with big hair. :oops:

What the fuck? The 5:30 news is being conducted by Cabot and Colleen at cubicle-style desks. They're showing me the NBC4 Facebook page. Does not compute.

I have a rather elaborate fantasy about Ellie Merritt and I baking cookies.
