- crowbar77, on 07/14/2008, -17/+599Should have said "Yeah, but your wife doesn't like when i talk about it" or something. Hell he had a whole avenue of mom jokes he could have used.
- inactive, on 07/14/2008, -17/+497They've probably seen lots of naked women...on their iPhone 1.0.
- zdiddy85, on 07/14/2008, -19/+462What a douche.
Funny thing is, KTLA is the one that posted the video... - c0nv1ct, on 07/14/2008, -8/+333You call that "Strike back" ???...
- bliks, on 07/14/2008, -38/+337Man, that reporter has no respect. Like I understand a little playing around but he took it a little too far.
KTLA should do some real journalism instead of this crap. - DivisibleByZero, on 07/14/2008, -19/+227If by "strike back" you mean "dodge the question"....
- snareguy17, on 07/14/2008, -4/+168Where's Triumph the Insult Comic Dog?
- sherb, on 07/14/2008, -20/+181It truly shows how much the news station knows about the iPhone when they write it on the screen as i-Phone. What's happened to good, solid journalism these days?
- sonar1, on 07/14/2008, -3/+109this is how its done:
http://www.devilducky.com/media/2536/ - acevoncash, on 07/14/2008, -9/+101not that i don't agree. its a damn phone and people are dumb for waiting in line that much. HOWEVER, this was just asking for trouble. Its like slitting your wrists and then jumping into the ocean. he just wanted to get someone pissed at him. also he spends half the video in the street.
- BMANZZS, on 07/14/2008, -7/+94"This is kind of jackass, no?"
Wonderful response. - inactive, on 07/14/2008, -12/+90he must feel like such a tough guy...
- Redseele, on 07/14/2008, -8/+84The guy in line raises an extremely serious question... "is this journalism to you?".
Seems like to a lot of these idiots (the ones on television) the fact that they are on air is enough to call anything journalism.
Jeez, what happened to a once respectable career?. Either that, or people in America have sadly lowered their viewing standards in the last 40 years of television journalism.
... and btw, it's not only these douchebags that I'm talking about. CNN is as stupid (but they know how to cover it so that it sounds intelligent). - Evolve, on 07/14/2008, -4/+71How exactly is that a "strike back" ?
- lucutus, on 07/14/2008, -6/+66The guy should have said "Why, are you about to get naked?"
- reichg, on 07/14/2008, -19/+76just because he though he was sooo 'smart', i would have replied "yeah, your mom" kicked him in the balls and thrown his mic across the street
- SpectreFire, on 07/14/2008, -12/+68That guy was a journalist?
What has become of this profession?!!! - haelios, on 07/14/2008, -3/+51REP: "Have you ever seen a woman naked?"
MAN: "Yeah, sure. But your wife doesn't like it much when I talk about it, y'know?"
[Reporter loses cool]
REP: "You think that's funny? Do you even know her name?"
[Man laughs to self and tries to end engagement]
REP: "Not so tough now huh? Go on, what's her name?"
MAN: "I don't know mate, she was too busy moaning out mine."
[Reporter resorts to physical attack]
[EOF] - zarcu, on 07/14/2008, -4/+49I want him to go up to one of the women and ask if they've ever seen a man naked. xD
- Theycallmetak, on 07/14/2008, -5/+48No, you probably would have stammered and stood there, red faced until the camera turned back to the "smart" guy with the mic and when you finally got either the idea, the balls, or both to do anything, he would have already moved down the line.
You tough guy, you. - BiIlyMays, on 07/14/2008, -2/+38I kept waiting for someone to come up behind him and hit him with a large blunt object, but it never happened. When he talked to the second guy I thought there might be some hope. That was no retaliation, over-hyped title.
- JohnnyKdiggs, on 07/14/2008, -1/+34This video is strangely devoid of, you know...striking back.
- inactive, on 07/14/2008, -2/+35I agree. Adding that extra '-' completely takes away all credibility that KTLA once had. This is a sad day for journalism.
- CanadaMan87, on 07/14/2008, -1/+31Well, it's entertaining. Should help their viewership.
- junkwheel, on 07/14/2008, -3/+33Exactly. The reporter hardly got owned by the guy. He owned himself with putting his hands up and standing like a moron.
He should have flat out said "I ***** YOUR mom".
Yeah, live tv!
"She's a screamer!" - DaffyDuck, on 07/14/2008, -1/+31Plus, apparently those people are standing in line at the "iphone store"
- SlashNot, on 07/14/2008, -5/+33kinda funny that one of the anhors at the desk laughing used to work for TechTV (Michaela Pereira) she must never get laid either!
- VinnieDaMac, on 07/14/2008, -0/+28"Funny thing is, KTLA is the one that posted the video..."
KTLA knows their audience well apparently. - da_bradler, on 07/14/2008, -6/+33i dunno if I support this video, the reporter was clearly trying to get the exact type of reaction he is getting. Aka free publicity for verbally abusing a bunch of people standing in line.
- chevyorange, on 07/14/2008, -3/+29Yeah, reporters will ask Joe Blow if they've ever seen a naked woman but won't ask our leadership about why we're really in Iraq, why the president seems to be okay with lying to citizens, why oil costs so much, etc etc etc.
Journalism is dead. - MrSarcasm, on 07/14/2008, -0/+24I dugg you down first, just so I could digg you up twice.
- Firehed, on 07/14/2008, -0/+24Yeah, that was a severe let-down. I was expecting for his blackberry to get smashed, have that book thrown at him, a punch thrown, any sort of "yes, your wife, last night"-type remark, anything.
- Namingway, on 07/14/2008, -6/+28I fully expected to see a ***** venti carmel macchiato splash that reporter in the face....buried as inaccurate!
I bet this still gets to front page... you ***** lame bastards. - wedges, on 07/14/2008, -4/+26the "this is not smart. is this journalism to you?" was pretty insightful.
- jstack, on 07/14/2008, -7/+29I would have responded with "only your mom".
- shuckl4k, on 07/14/2008, -0/+21which button calls you mother to come pick you up?
- polywaffle, on 07/14/2008, -6/+26Brainwashed by apple? Yeah sure you can pick up a smartphone with all those features, but I doubt you'll be able to find one with a decent interface and touchscreen. Thats why apple products are better. People dont want phone with a ***** computer interface they want a phone.
- bmdubya, on 07/14/2008, -14/+34I have to disagree with you about people are dumb for waiting in line that much. I didn't wait in line for the iPhone, but I've waiting in lines for midnight releases of video games. To me, it isn't just about the game, it is about being around people that have the same passion you have. I really enjoy midnight releases of games. Plus, these people were excited about the iPhone. Who cares? Are you jealous because you can't afford one, so you have to make fun of them? Or are you just one of those people who don't get excited about anything, and just make people feel like ***** for getting excited about something? This would be same as people waiting in the snow for a front row seat at a basketball game, or waiting overnight for a concert ticket.
- NaziHatinChimp, on 07/14/2008, -2/+21Agreed.
- cdigioia, on 07/14/2008, -5/+23Seems like a waste of time to me - but then so does gardening - they're just doing it for fun, who cares?
- AndreiOttawa, on 07/14/2008, -5/+23How's that "Strike back"? The reply was super lame.
- Danzinger, on 07/14/2008, -1/+19Pretty sure that sounds a lot cooler in your head than it would actually be in real life.
- ryanonfire, on 07/14/2008, -3/+20what the hell does he say? sounds like Isn'tjackassnuff
- inactive, on 07/14/2008, -2/+17Beautiful! Another mental fantasy from an iPhone fanboy! Now do my mom!
- Galaxylander, on 07/14/2008, -3/+18No, the hosts of the show knew exactly how big of a douchebag he was being and I think they posted it just to show him what a assface he is.
- rasterbator, on 07/14/2008, -7/+21nah, he didn't take it too far. in fact, he was quite a pussy about it. and the KTLA woman was a typical talking head douchebag that you would expect in LA.
- junkwheel, on 07/14/2008, -0/+13Too weak for the length, this is live tv, all you need is "I ***** YOUR mom!"
See where they go with that. - Soave, on 07/14/2008, -21/+34What a douche. Let people buy what they want and leave them alone.
- TaintBrush, on 07/14/2008, -4/+17"This is journalism to you?"
Perfect. I used to hate the journalism majors in college, because they just wanted to be on TV, they cared nothing about delivering facts and information. - wildsnake, on 07/14/2008, -3/+15The iPhone 3G is not make the long lines. The activation process did.
