Media: Boom goes the … aw, just skip it

Something Cory said in this post reminded me of this infamous YouTube video:

Laugh if you must. The truth is that the guy was making his first attempt at reading the sports report at a college television station. I’ve done live radio many, many times and I’m fairly certain I’d be covered on flop sweat and all sorts of stupid things would be coming out of my mouth. So cut the dude some slack.

UPDATE: Speaking of media bloopers:

I am so glad I deal in the printed word, and that I can correct what I write in real time.

    At least the Fox people had fun with it. She admitted she screwed up. Makes them seem human, rather than the Roger Ailes automatons I usually regard them as.

    They’re human, alright. Human fascist propagandists.

    XJ: Many of their people came from “liberal” MSM outlets so I guess they became Ailes Automatons when they started at FNC?

    Cory: Your Hyperbole-Fu is strong.
