Corp000085 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I've got CNN on and they have some NOAA scientist in studio and he keeps c-blocking the sensationalism of that weather dude. It's pretty funny actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I have an urge to get AC in a headlock and give him a "noogie" Then ram his noggin into the corner of a brick building, let him collapse on the ground and then do an atomic knee drop to his back.

If there was no media coverage from these places, do you think any Americans would give it a second thought to help? Not many. "Awwww, Haiti had an earthquake...squirrel!" Then, there is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mty5C7jwCYU Did he only do it for the camera? Who knows, but it was more then the Haitian "men" did at the time. And, that one act was more then you or I have ever done for a person in that country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drifter Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Reporters trying to make more of a situation for there own benefit? I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you. Oh the humanity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I think he was told to start looking more involved as people were complaining about his grand standing Considering Sanjay Gupta's on the same network (medical reporter and doctor, who was embedded in a field hospital in Iraq in 2003 and bailed on reporting for 12 hours to perform surgery on a critically wounded soldier), that wouldn't surprise me much. But as much of a grandstanding son of a B word that AC is on camera, we know nothing about him off camera. He may actually be a decent guy.

He doesn't for Fux Gnus so some people here will never acknowledge he could be a decent guy, even in the face of glaring facts. I think he was told to start looking more involved as people were complaining about his grand standing See what I mean.

You obviously don't possess the ability to make character judgments based on what you see on TV. Obviously many more here can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 But as much of a grandstanding son of a B word that AC is on camera, we know nothing about him off camera. He may actually be a decent guy. He was host of "The Mole" and has guest hosted on Regis & Kelly a few times. He seems like a guy that would have a beer with you if asked.

Just Jack Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Both. I liked The Mole the first two seasons, after they started doing the celebrity editions, it got worse. I tried watching the 5th season when it went back to regular people, but it didn't keep my interest with a different host. As for Regis & Kelly, when I'm home I watch ABC Good Morning America. By 9am I'm usually working on something but have left the TV on, and R&K comes on right after. So I've heard him guest hosting with Kelly when Regis is gone.
