The media at their finest
 
Clips of clumsy media reporters destroying stuff that usually involved alot of work.

Tell me the one with the cute latin reporter (Sand Art) isnt a set up. :03:

In defense of the guy with the phone, the company was claiming that you could drop it off a 10-story building, and that is why the reporter was abusing it. Seems that it should be able to withstand a smack against the side of an aquarium.

The others are total goobers, though. I found the guy with the mug particularly offensive.

The Jenga tower was the best.

Those are good, but nothing like reporters breaking themselves:

The classic grape stomp video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMS0O3kknvk

That Ice sculpting one was just amazing. Amazingly stupid for touching peoples artwork like that and expecting it to be just dandy. That must have set the station back a few hundred to a thousand or so.

Oh my god, the media's idiots are everywhere. And I thought only our country had them

Let's hope so. What strikes me about these videos is that the clumsy reporter hardly ever apologizes for his actions. It's all a big joke to them.

Just a reminder (http://en.rsf.org/) that the smart reporters have their share of detractors as well.

Funded by the Open Society Institute of George Soros so maybe they could use a little scrutiny.
