They apparently enabled the delay, but left the live feed on the air. When you decide to use the delay guys, you have to actually cut to it. Flippin’ amateurs.
I don’t normally wish a firing on anyone, but I would like to see Shep replaced. He’s irritating. Harris Faulkner, who hosts the Fox Report on weekends, would be a decent replacement, if she wanted to work weekdays.
tasteless metrosexual.
Actually, I think he is a tasteless homosexual
It caused me severe emotional distress. I saw it live while DVRing it. I need treatment for newly aquired PTSD symptoms and monetary relief for my pain.
SOME ONE WILL GET FIRED for it. As was reported earlier, They had a delay feed and Shep was watching the delay and WE were watching live. Shep was hollering to get off the shot way after the guy offed himself.
yeah saw this live.
they had it on delay but i saw it.
Not buying this nonsense.
The media wants to broadcast “reality”V car chases hostage situations etc. Well today you got reality.
I just watched that one; hadn’t seen it before, but had heard about it. Wow, what a terrible shocker.
I remember a nighttime car chase north of Los Angeles... the car veered onto the shoulder at high speed and rammed into the back of a parked semi on live TV.
Looked intentional, but it’s hard to say. We sure can’t ask him, he ended up in tiny pieces all over the interstate.
Why is the unvarnished truth a disgrace?
Oh, good, I was starting to be afraid we wouldn’t have duplicate threads on this earth shattering news!
“They apparently enabled the delay, but left the live feed on the air. When you decide to use the delay guys, you have to actually cut to it. Flippin’ amateurs.”
Yup, that’s what happened. The “ending” took me by surprise, because it happened so suddenly, but it was a long distance suicide so you really couldn’t see any blood or gore. I think the guy was on some sort of drugs, as he stumbled out of the car, ran down a little sloped path, stumbled again and fell, seemed disoriented, and turned suddenly, then blew his brains out. All you could see is him firing the gun (right side of head) and then crumple.
That’s when you hear Drama Queen (Shep) shrieking “cut away, cut away”, which they finally did. Then it went to Ads, and when the show came back on, Shep wouldn’t say anything more other than to watch his evening show for what happened to the guy. Nice lead in for his evening show, n’est pas? So tune in tonite at 7 eastern time on Fox for the end result, which those of us who were watching already know.
Director’ll blame that on the TD and the TD will blame it on the director. The Tech Director is never believed in those circumstances. Even if the intercom was being recorded, and you can clearly hear the director call the wrong camera, they’ll say the TD should have known better.
Joy of being a “below the line” crew member.
We’ve been drench in blood and violence by hollywood and the “news channels” for so long that live moments like this have become part of the wall paper.
Oh my. Glad I was out running errands this afternoon. I usually enjoy a car chase when they happen during Shep’s segment. Yikes.
Was this live? they’ll never learn.
I remember budd dwyer and his envelope, also the late ‘80’s
bank robbery in nyc with the Suzuki samurai.
“Network and cable news are a disgrace. Sorry, but it’s true.”
Maybe the hovering news helicopter drove the shooter over the edge.
No, I mean he should resign because he is a disgrace.
.... The media and Democrats have just been handed another issue to harp on and keep the airwaves busy for the next few weeks!!!
