    Since I work in news, and do similar stories day in and day out, I can appreciate the courage it took for this reporter to do a stupid story in a stupid way. It is just what TV News lacks….the ability to make fun of how stupid it usually is…
    Great stuff. Last week I had to do a TV story about quacking noises on tour buses. I challenged the reporter to not have any quack noises in the piece, since everybody already knows what they sound like, and I thought it would make the story original, since the story was about a company who did not want anyone else to make quack noises. Sort of a quackless story. Do you think the reporter could refrain from stupid quack noises in the story? Guess.

    And here I though this story was PETA’s answer to all the negative stories over the last few days.

    PETA Press Release: “It’s GOOD to have Wild bears in your backyard! They don’t eat people or pets, and give free fertilizer!

    We can live in peace with our Big Black Kittens!”

    As someone who has lived through a bear re- population in Northern Penna, the important facts to report are missing. The bear are expanding their territory due to increase increasing population.

    Learn how to coexist with them and treat them as the omnivores they are.

    The best thing about a local bear population is the fact that they eat deer.

    Just how did that reporter manage to do the entire story without breaking up laughing?

    I’ll bet the news crew had a lot of fun doing the story.

    It could only have been improved if Hannity had reported the bear was an Obama relative black bear.

    This news story has two thing wrong with it. Fox, and Cleveland. No wonder.

    Of course Fox News got the story exactly backwards.

    It’s the people trespassing in the bear’s back yard – not the other way ’round.

    Obviously a SLOW news day. Translation: There are plenty of very important and complex topics to report on but we only have 12 minutes and our viewers don’t want to have to think anyway.

    I’m they didn’t get Veronica Belmont to play the bear. It would have made the piece more bearable.
