TV3 scumbag just now

darkman2 · 13-07-2007 5:43pm #1

Anyone see that scumbag on TV3 news outside Store St Garda Station??

Agamemnon · 13-07-2007 5:44pm

No, what did he do?

darkman2 · 13-07-2007 5:49pm

He ran up too the camera and started shouting at the reporter saying he was gonna shoot him

walt0r07 · 13-07-2007 5:49pm

Yeah, I was just about to post about it. Absolutely hillarious! Some scumbag just comes up to the reporter with his hand in teh form of a gun shouting "I'll ****ing blow your head off you ****ing muppeh!!!"

darkman2 · 13-07-2007 5:50pm

Hope someone puts it on youtube...

walt0r07 · 13-07-2007 5:52pm

me too, it was classic, better than when Pat Kenny was confronted by the drunk

Thrill · 13-07-2007 5:52pm

Another day, another scumbag muppet. What a tool. Should be arrested just for being that stupid.

walt0r07 · 13-07-2007 5:53pm

He covered his face with his hood for a bit, but he was clearly visible coming up to the camera behind the reporter, he should get arrested for it, had to have been off his face on something...

aidan_walsh · 13-07-2007 5:53pm

Its a well known fact that television cameras turn people into utter retards. Big Brother and sporting events have long provided proof.

darkman2 · 13-07-2007 5:55pm

He obviously felt comfortable being able to be thick right outside the Garda station aswell:rolleyes:

mike65 · 13-07-2007 5:59pm

One day a tv crew will bite back!

Mike.

Winters · 13-07-2007 6:07pm

Would lulz to see him arrested.

Damn scumbags ¬_¬

I was even watching the TV3 news....why do I always walk out of the room at worst moment?I always miss these things.

Which reporter was it?I can imagine some handling it differently to others.

Of course it wont end up on youtube for two reasons:

1. what percentage of the population actually takes time out to watch TV3 news (I was only flicking through, honest!)

2. who in their right mind would record it:rolleyes:

kelle · 13-07-2007 7:01pm

It might be shown on the later news?

Gran Hermano · 13-07-2007 8:02pm

Feck, sounds like TV3 actually had a program showing Irish people
as opposed to something they bought from ITV and I missed it.

Jerome Hughes, I think it was. And he didn't handle it all that well, he basically just froze.

Seen similar things happen before to Australian reporters and the Aussies definitely aren't afraid to get into a scrap with any muppet who gets up in their faces! Great fun to watch!

Can't really picture Charlie Bird or Brian Dobson doing the same and getting into a punching match with some scanger, though! :rolleyes:

I bet that dobson would surprise us all though!

Yeah I saw it. It was a good afternoon's entertainment - what with Judge Judy on just before it..

Don't blame the cameras, the people are already retards, when the camera is on, it's just their time to shine.

I doubt they would repeat a piece where some tard came up to the camera and abused the reporter.

democrates · 14-07-2007 2:41am

What's needed here is a reporters mic with a built in tazar, heh heh heh. Probably best I say no more on account of my imagination having a history of scaring people.

Jesus Wept · 14-07-2007 2:54am

That's a great idea, cause the scummer would probably make a grab for the mic anyhow.

Maybe someone with Sky+ could have used live rewind and saved it.

Would love to see this...

14-07-2007 10:14am

Just had a quick scan of youtube, can't find it!

InFront · 14-07-2007 1:41pm

Saw this yesterday, I thought he was about to smack that reporter. I thought the reporter handled it quite well. Well, at least he didn't scream anyway.

lostexpectation · 14-07-2007 8:44pm

were they reporting on his case and he didn't like the camera there as he came out of court?

idlesupernova · 14-07-2007 9:18pm

I think it was a report from the Wheelock inquest.

darkman2 · 27-07-2007 7:08pm

Behold! - the scumbag has been immortalised on youtube:

Its toward the end that the simpleton makes his move.....

Ruu_Old · 27-07-2007 7:16pm

Jerome should have gave him a good hiding.

27-07-2007 7:22pm

F**ckin scum, the reporter should have elbowed him in the face or something.

mike65 · 27-07-2007 7:40pm

I'd be mightly pissed off to take taken off-air so quickly before I could get my ninja styled revenge on the little gimp.

Mike.

Thrill · 27-07-2007 8:12pm

He'll watch it for hours on youtube and then tell his brainless buddies about how famous and hard he is, the stupid little twit.

Rhyme · 27-07-2007 8:22pm

I like the way he pulls up his hood and then realises that he can't see.

The crew should've bludgeoned him with the camera equipment.

Ravage1616 · 28-07-2007 2:51am

Why did he bother putting his hood up!? He must have had some cop on to know he was on camera before he put it up.

Cop on and morons don't go hand in hand.

That would require brain cells in double digits.

dazftw · 28-07-2007 4:56am

lol that was crap. I was suspecting there to be like shoving or something

The reporter just looked at him and was like yea... your cool lol

bohsboy · 28-07-2007 9:00am

Could'nt have happened to a nicer tool. Met that Hughes bloke a couple of years ago in Donegal. Arrogant prat.

TV3 scumbag just now
