Live by the gotcha, die by it.

[Frwy]

$h!t happens.

[MilesVeritatis]

Heh, CNN performs another sophomoric prank while President Bush or another official high in the Administration is speaking. This time, it just happened naturally.

[backhoe]

From the blogosphere:

Who's Working the Control Room?

Mainstream media screws up, big time: Oops! CNN Airs Anchor’s Girltalk Over Bush Speech.   link: 78 comments  She seems like a nice gal. Bright, hardworking by her resume. Too bad that it looks like she was hung out to dry by some cnn hack.  Oh, and the left hates her. And she's no bubble headed newsreader.

DID CNN HAVE A WARRENT TO TAP THIS PRIVATE CONVERSATION?

[Dallas59]

Maybe she meant this kind of control freak...

[Diggler]

I really can't believe that large organizations like CNN don't pay someone to sit there and listen and watch exactly what the viewer would see so situations like this would be caught within seconds.

My favorite 'mic left on' incident was during the 2004 DNC convention where they announced Kerry's candidacy and the balloons didn't drop... you could hear the guy getting angrier and angrier, and I knew he'd do it... he finally did...

Don Mischer: "Go balloons, go balloons! Go balloons! I don't see anything happening. Go balloons! Go balloons! Go balloons! Standby confetti. Keep coming, balloons. More balloons. Bring it- balloons, balloons, balloons! We want balloons, tons of them. Bring them down. Let them all come. No confetti. No confetti yet. No confetti. All right, go balloons, go balloons. We need more balloons. All balloons! All balloons! Keep going! Come on, guys, lets move it. Jesus! We need more balloons. I want all balloons to go, g*d-d***it. Go confetti. Go confetti. More confetti. I want more balloons. What's happening to the balloons? We need more balloons. We need all of them coming down. Go balloons- balloons? What's happening balloons? There's not enough coming down! All balloons, what the hell! There's nothing falling! What the f*** are you guys doing up there? We want more balloons coming down, more balloons. More balloons. More balloons!"

LOL.

[mewzilla]

...CNN was forced to apologise...

Interesting wording...

[Boris99]

CNN has performed more illegal wiretaps on American citizens than the NSA!!!

[Old Grumpy]

Maybe CNN should now be known as the "Crappy News Network." Heh.

[InvisibleChurch]

So obviously no one in the control room is listening to the speech.Does anyone at CNN listen to the speech? They probably pick their responses for the speech much the way Hi Flagston picks jobs from a job jar.

Phillips: “Brother - of course, brothers have to be, you know, protective. Except for mine. I've got to be protective of him."

"Yeah. He's married, three kids,

but her sister-in-law is the control freak...

[N. Theknow]

Worst part of this...

Her poor brother having to reassure his wife that, "No, Honeybun. Honest. I don't think you are a control freak. I don't know where my sister got that idea."

For the last 48 hours and counting..........

[Loyalist]

Lost in all of this controversy is the fact that man has now found the solution to one of the greatest mysteries of woman: why does she have to go to the washroom in packs?

[ryan71]

NEW REALITY SHOW...

LIVE MIKES IN LADIES ROOMS.

I'D TUNE IN.

HE HE.

[6ppc]

That's not that bad. In my family we have three control freaks, me, my younger sister and my mother. Thing is we all know it and talk about it.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

It's fun to see gossip biting its deliverer on the ass. :-)

[Loyal Buckeye]

This is a shocker.

I didn't know news anchorettes had to use the can.

[bray]

I pity her Neutered Husband! Methinks the SIL is not the only Control Freak??

Pray for W and Our Troops

[BJClinton]

It coulda been worse: "I've declared my sister in law to be illegal. We launch in 15 minutes."
