The plane was brought down by a blast of wind from Howard Stern's ass. Was Krystal actually listening?
Seriously that was hilarious.

1. I was watching The Cycle live when this happened

and I could not understand what he said. I don't know if this tape was cleaned up a little or what but I had no idea until later what he said after "The plane was brought down by". It is the producers who need to be ridiculed.

4. My wife heard it clearly as it happened ...

and called me in to replay it.

I doubt Crystal didn't hear it; unless she has a hearing loss.

6. Don't forget they have producers talking in their ears

all the time while they are on camera.

Perhaps I need to get my hearing checked as I did not understand what he said about Howard Stern and there wasn't anyone else present for me to check with. I did hear the part where he called her stupid.

2. I heard this when it aired live....

as soon as he said it, my wife and I looked at each other and repeated what we thought we heard. Then we laughed.
What was poor on Krystal's part was how she did not even come close to paying attention to his answer and proceeds to ask him a follow up question.
Gotta listen to be a good anchor/reporter, it's not always about how you look and sound!

3. It was her follow up question that brought the comment

The producer should have done due diligence but she should have paid attention. She only wanted to hear brought down the aircraft.

There were more hints because there is no way Boyd could have seen this from the US embassy in Kiev, let alone describe what he saw - he could not have seen that.

5. You'd think a CPA would be a good listener.
