I read yesterday that this reporter had been seen by neighbors at the man’s house frequently lately. So I don’t believe her “cover” story. She was making a habit of hanging out with this guy whose wife disappeared.

Will she be dating Mayor Villaraigosa next? I understand he has a thing for female reporters.

Lapse in judgment? Assuming that the estranged husband is a suspect in his wife’s disappearance then her actions represent a whole lot more than that.

Nahhhhhhh, anything to get the story...

Given the basic facts, I’m not sure I get the big problem here. So she’s spending time there on a few occasions while following this story, and then at some point he says something like “sure, bring the kids over and they can play in the pool while we talk”. If that’s all there is, then so what?

If she’s having an affair with the guy, then it’s a big family problem for them, and perhaps an ethical issue, but that assumes facts not in evidence.

While skimming across the post I keyed on "Chicago", "TV news reporter" and "Jacobson"....so before I actually read it, I was picturing:

For those of us who have never lived or watched TV in Chicago, Walter Jacobson has been on Channel 2 there, seemingly, forever, and he has a way of getting on people's nerves, no matter who or what they are.

Now I am wondering whether or not this newly-unemployed "newsette" is a close relative.

I have been out of Chicago since 1985, so I'm about 12 years out of date.

it is over 6 minutes long, from a rival station.

“Neighbors told Channel 2 in Chicago that Jacobson has visited the Stebics’ home frequently since she started covering the story.”

If you watch the whole 6 minutes of video, it sure looks like she is hanging out rather than working on the story.

But she said she was “only trying to advance the story.” Uh, ok.

“Clown suits!” LOL!

I don’t think this woman deserved being fired. Won’t this make it more difficult for her to get another job as a reporter?

Journalists should never wear bikinis.

That is exactly why I never entered the business.

On Fred's first live test of his secret invisibility fluid, he used way too much and was disappointed with the result.

"My kids were in the car with me," Jacobson said. "It was a way for me to do my work and have fun with my kids."

Yes, and the dog probably ate your notes, too.....stupid blonde twit.....

Not great, but less ominous.

Less ominous...if true.This thing makes the reporter look like a ditz.....but it makes the husband look even more guilty of murder.

I'll wager that the husband will someday regret having invited (or his sister having invited) a bikini-clad woman over to his house for a pool party while the mother of his children is missing.

She was in the process of getting a divorce, and something was hanging out ever now and then but she was doing her best to cover it with containment. So they say, but don't know what position she was using.

"She was making a habit of hanging out..."

After reviewing the video, I find her not guilty of hanging out.

How can you make a lapse in judgement.

Drinking...drugs...and apparently watching Micheal Moore movies....
