Questions, questions
Scott Ott has the last word on the studio generals. Once you're done laughing, I have a couple of questions: Who was the best "studio general?" (doesn't have to be an actual general) You can answer in the comments, my answers are below. Who was the best "studio general?" Col. Bob BevilacquaPosted By Martin Devon at April 15, 2003 03:22 AM | TrackBack Comments
I see your point about Schwarzkopf but I would nominate Hackworth. Posted by: R Roberts at April 15, 2003 12:48 PMIMHO:
Gen. Wayne Downing [remote] Low key; very expert. Major General [Retired] Burton Moore [studio] [Maj. Jack Stradley and a few others are a close second.] Major Jack was at his best when trying to seduce Chris Jansing [the closest embodiment of Sailor Moon/anime female talking head]! Colonel David Hunt is the best at impersonating Robert Conrad impersonating a military expert. [Hunt knows his stuff and is flame-worthy (like in flicking a Bic flame-worthy). Who was the worst "studio general? There are way too many to name!
David Bloom [civialian (RIP)] (when he didn't let the MSNBC village idiots and news-whores get in his way.)] Rick Leventhal is a close second. Oliver North [former military] is the best of the best, IMHO. [He's been there, done that!] What was the best embedded report? (i.e. one story/dispatch) It may sound trite; but the coverage [censored] of the combined rescue effort of PFC Jessica Lynch. OOHRAAH! [Kerry Sanders (Gulf War I and II) In-Country] Mohammed Aldouri's "I love New York!"
Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf (M.S.S.) Baghdad Bob gave us more comic relief than the Smothers Brothers! What was the one single stupidest thing you heard someone say on TV or saw them say in print? "We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons. Whether it is the fictition [sic] of duct tape or the fictition [sic] of orange alerts, we are against this war, Mr. Bush. Shame on you, Mr. Bush!” --Michael Moore
Who's the best News Playmate and/or "Thigh Master?" Laurie Dhue "rocks my World!" Who's f*cking who behind the logo? Chris Jansing is doing Jack Stradley. Alex Whit is doing Chris Jansing and Soledad O'Brien in a ménage à trois. What is the one event that could have changed tele-journalism? Dan Rather stepping on an anti-personnel mine in Gulf War I. Which female tele-journalist has the widest ass? Rita Cosby. Which male tele-jouranlist is a Spinmeister Extraordinaire? Jim Miklaszewski
IMHO; http://www.jumptheshark.com/f/foxnewschannel.htm Er....make that tele-journalist. So I'm dyslexic....wtach ti! I must use http://www.m-w.com/home.htm MORE! I missed some of the tv coverage but I caught this one where the day after they surrounded the Baghdad hotel they went to a mosque in another part of town where they thought Hussein might be hiding. They approached in an open-top armored personell carrier and the embed was taping from within it and you could hear ping, ping, ping on the side of the carrier and occasionally thud on the side. It was obvious that they were in an exposed and vulnerable position; very scary. Had the enemy had one of those cheap RPG's at that moment and place, it might have been horrible. Posted by: Jim Bosso at April 16, 2003 11:14 AMBest embed - RICK LEVENTHAL Best Studio General: Major Jack Stradley. Don't get Worst Studio General: General(fictional) Mildener from Late Night w/ Conan. He's funny as hell though. Posted by: Felice at April 22, 2003 12:47 AMPost a comment
