    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...

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

    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:

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

    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.

    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.

    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... :D

    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.
