I wish you had asked me that question when I posted it on 2/21. It was from a local news station webpage and it would have still been in my browser history.
I didn't create the statement about the TV reporter out of whole cloth.
I've just skimmed fifteen pages of Google results and only found a couple of local television news reports, none of which were the one I referred to. By now, the base story about a Wii controller appears to be on every blog around, but only the TV website story mentioned what its reporter claimed to have seen.
