Saturday Night Funny Video: Exasperated TV Anchors Upset at Missing Bridge Implosion
By Brent Baker | September 04, 2011 | 01:51
Another entry in my Saturday night humor postings for NewsBusters, usually drawn from the clips shown at the end of FNC’s Special Report which frequently come from video montages picked up off the late night comedy shows. It was a pretty weak week with some lame offerings, so this week I’m going back into the archives.
Tonight, from November of 2010, a clip of how some morning news anchors reacted with colorful exasperation when they cut away at just the wrong time and so missed a bridge demolition.
The two anchors are Larry Potash and Robin Baumgarten, from Chicago’s WGN-TV’s Morning News. This clip, promoted by WGN, got quite a bit of online play last year, but if you didn’t see it then you can check it out now. It is amusing.

The MSM has the same problem with Obama's life, and his economic implosions. They miss them all.
I guess practice makes perfect.
No worries

Flip on the tube any time of day and see this happening live in the form of an Obama presidency. It's not hard to catch, it's impossible to miss.
Difference being, the bridge didn't effect anyone, the O effects everyone.
Political Correctness - the belief that one can pick up a turd by the clean end.
