Maryland Reporter Tucker Barnes Gets Soaked in Sewage Sea Foam During Hurricane Irene

A local reporter from Washington, D.C. ended up getting soaked in what is probably the remnants of raw sewage as he delivered live hurricane reports from Ocean City, Maryland.

WTTG-TV reporter Tucker Barnes was providing live updates for stations around the country as a wall of what he described as sea foam poured over him.

Barnes was on the boardwalk as Hurricane Irene hit the coast of Maryland
He noted that he had immersed himself in organic material. That "organic material" was most likely the effects of raw sewage pouring into the water during the storm.

"It doesn't taste great," he said.

He said it had a sandy consistency and added, "I can tell you first-hand, it doesn't smell great."

Planking Man Stuck in Man Hole

Fox's local news caster tells the story of a Ceres man who got stuck in a man hole. Only his feet remained sticking out of the storm drain. To make things even funnier, the female reporter struggles to remove the iron grate and sticks her arms and head into the storm drain to recreate the event.

The man claims he was roughed up by some other kids who tossed his cell phone down the drain; he went to retrieve it and got stuck there for over 40 minutes before the neighbors spotted his shoes sticking up out of the hole.

Christine Ensinga Gets Splashed With Water

Recently when a New York state mom left her infant in the car during a hot day for 15 minutes in the Kmart parking lot, police were called to the situation. The local news reporter Christine Ensinga tried to go to the 26 year old mom's residence to interview her. However, the reporter was greeted at the door with a bucket of water tossed in her face and later on with a hose of water spraying on her. It looked like the child's grandmother was behind the water works; and the negligent mother didn't want be photographed by any body.

Ice Cold Kool-Aid in Detroit

Here's a funny clip from Detroit's local news cast. After a recent bout of strong storms knocked out power for a full 5 days (which isn't uncommon in South East Michigan), the Detroit Edison work crews finally got to one lady's block who happened to be super excited because now she can "drink ice cold kool-aid and sleep like a baby".

Georgetown Fights Chinese Basketball team

Recently the Georgetown mens basketball team were visiting China as part of a goodwill tour. During one particularly physical game with tons of fouls called (mainly against the hoyas), a fight breaks out. Punches were thrown, players were pushed, the benches cleared out, and even chairs were thrown. After a while the tensions calm down enough for John Thompson to lead his team back off of the court to the locker room and by that time the crowd was throwing bottles.

The two teams supposedly made up after the event and are supposed to play a second game on Sunday night in Shanghai.

Reporter--"Man has more pussy (cats) than he can handle"

Now local news reporters can frequently be a little bit lame and not really know too many slang words... But this news lady is a piece of work---The teaser is that this "man has more pussy (cats) than he can handle."

It's almost like she never went to Junior High School to develop a juvenile sense of humor.

Reporter Tries To Report at Firing Range

Now this is just plain silly. A local CBS affiliate beat reporter is reporting his story while at the firing range. He's wearing ear-protection himself, while a shooter fires a handgun many times down-range to the target. The viewer can't hear any of the report only the bang-bang-bang of the gun going off. The audio-engineer had be nuts to allow such a thing.
