Geraldo

Posted on 04/04/2011 11:15:56 AM PDT by manc

Anyone see Geraldo in Libya?

The man is such a flake. he shouts he's being shot at while hitting the deck but then a guy walks behind him like nothing is happening.

Geraldo hits the deck while his pick up truck moves away with a guy sitting on the back and his camera man records Geraldo hitting the deck and shouting.

The second pick up truck has a guy firing into the air, why if they are supposed to be in a fire fight?

Yet again it seems Geraldo has staged yet another dramatic scene to get ratings and sympathy.

Why can't FOX just fire this guy and get it over and done with?

Staged? No way. Gerry Rivers is a genuine as his name. Remember when he found all that gold and treasure in Al Capone's vault? This guy is a straight reporter.

Maybe he just saw “The Jerk” and was near some oil cans and just flipped out?

The man is a complete fool and a drama queen.

I never saw any firefight , any explosions, all I saw was a guy firing into the air, his pick up truck driving off while still filming Geraldo hitting the deck LOL and a guy walking behind him

I watched his report yesterday just to see if he gave away any more vital secrets to the enemy.

Geraldo is there to disrupt and create a story not to report on anything.

He is just a camera hog. If there is any chance of getting his mug in front of a camera, he’s up for THAT!!

What a worm he is! He always thinks it’s about HIM!!!

Whorealdo is a sensationalist. Pure and simple.

I’m just glad he wasn’t giving out coordinated of our troops this time.

During the earlier days of the Iraq war Geraldo did a spot acting like he was reporting from the front lines during a fire fight. It came out he actually filmed the spot back at the base miles away from any fighting. All his historonics, ducking and wincing were pure staged BS.

The only thing that could have made it better was if the person walking calmly behind him had been a child eating an ice cream cone...

Now that was a classic moment in LIVE TV disaster coverage.

It really didn’t look like they were taking enemy fire direct or indirect. It looked like Geraldo playing army commander and wishing he had enlisted at some point in his life.
