Great Understatement on MSNBC!!!

[PCIntern]

A riotous laff for all!!!

At the arraignment for Michael Vick, the crowd was chanting something across the street. The Newsbunny said to her control room: Wait..I want to hear what they're chanting.

then, loud and clear came:

VICK IS SHIT!
VICK IS SHIT!
VICK IS SHIT!

the newsbunny then said, "Michael Vick has clearly lost some of his popularity"

Isn't this the best!!?

1. lol

[Zywiec]

2. Should we notify the FCC

I don't think you should be able to hear "shit" on TV. There could be children listening.

[dorkulon]

6. Holy shit! The children could hear that shit!

I imagine they'll survive. Besides, how many kids are watching MSNBC?

[Zywiec]

10. I hope you know I was kidding.

I guess I should have used this: :sarcasm:

[dorkulon]

13. Too deadpan for me I guess.

I thought maybe, but there are some real prudes on DU

[question everything]

14. This was a major story line on the late "Studio 60"

There was a live interview with a soldier in Iraq and he used the language commonly used by soldiers.. and they got into trouble with the FCC because they would not edit it out.

16. well

you're allowed to swear on cable.

[Hayabusa]

18. I can't help it...

"You can't say shit on television! What the **** is wrong with you?!" --Joel Gertner.

In more serious matters, I agree with the nomination of "Understatement of the Year."

3. I hope those people show up when Rove is frog

marched and Gonzo as well.

[The Count]

4. Ha!Ha! DU-zie material!

:rofl:

[Buttercup McToots]

5. I heard that!!!

It was funny...Connie bunny was lost for words...

[durrrty libby]

7. The MSNBC reporter just said that Vick "shuck and jive on the field"

Isn't that a racially insensitive remark?

The guy is despicable if the allegations are true but I think

that remark is questionable

[PCIntern]

11. Really...

which announcer said that?

Just unbelievable...

I'm so glad I have this on in my dental office...that is...private office...all day. It can really get exciting at times.

I'm referring of course to the incompetence of the MSNBC/CNN staff, not the news.

19. He was reporting from the courthouse around 3:15

Slim white baldish guy with glasses.

I did not recognize him. Edit to add first name Steve.

One of the protesters had a sign that said "JAIL BUSH"

[dorkulon]

15. What about a former KKK "exalted cyclops" calling him 'barbaric' repeatedly?

I thought that was kinda unfortunate too.

[CatWoman]

8. on the radio, an announcer said we should put "con" in front of his name

you know, "convick"?

[bdamomma]

9. when Vitter was on the Senate floor today, he looked like a scared

puppy.

[anniebelle]

12. I hope they electrocute, hang and stomp that sorry POS

into the ground. There's already more information than I need to know. Go look at HSUS site on this.

[frogcycle]

17. i bet she knew what they were saying

or somebody off camera did and told her to do that

:rofl:

[PCIntern]

21. Pretty funny prank...

"Ooops, my bad!"
:rofl:
I bet they just love to do that around MSNBC...they're a prank-filled crowd, probably really pissed at the salary differential btween the on-air 'talent' (and I use that word in every sense) and the control-room folk.

[proud patriot]

20. LOL

:)

[lwcon]

22. Reminds me of long-ago Boston Bruins game

Eddie Westfall slid across the ice and savagely crashed his skull into the boards (and this was before helmets).

Looked like the guy should have been decapitated by the violent force.

One of the announcers says, "I think he hit his head, Don."

Hey, the liberal light is always on at the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy. Please stop by and say "hi!"

[SoCalDem]

23. This am another newschickie tried to say "country" and dropped the "r"

reminder.. in "country", the "o" is silent:)

[PCIntern]

24. What network...?

gotta be some Youtube somewhere!!

:rofl:

[SoCalDem]

25. I was flipping between CNN & MSNBC.. so I'm not sure

:)

[GenDem]

26. I heard it

:spray:

I couldn't wait to get home after being away from news sources all day to listen to the msm hitting the Gonzo perjury stuff hard. Alas -- there are three news stories that rank higher -- Michael Vick, the stock market losses, and a pretty girl found in a lake.

:banghead:
