Terrible news. The newscasters reporting this are barely able to hold it together.

Ok, I have to ask... What are “Choopers?”

Prayers up for all involved, prayers for the families of the deceased.

It is sad, I have seen those things buzzing around here before flying back and forth following a story, you just know this had to happen eventually.

Sad, but inevitable.

Live broadcasts of police chases just encourage a certain class of moron to lead one of his/her own, with all the resulting chaos and danger.

Is there chopper coverage of the accident from another network?

So instead of the TV audience getting to see a high speed car crash (let’s face it, that’s why they broadcast this crap), they get to see a helicopter crash...

So, in an effort to continue to sell advertising spots on the local news, four people in the hire of TV news bought the farm while trying to get shots of some cops chasing some miscreant.

I don’t know whether to be saddened, or to laugh.

And the other news choppers following the chase provide the live coverage. There’s something disturbingly hilarious about the whole thing, they all follow these car chases hoping for blood anyway, the reporters actually providing the blood is a punchline you can only get in reality. Prayers for the families, and a stern look to the others in the car chase profession (and the “news” organizations that encourage it), we all knew this was going to happen eventually.

It was only a matter of time. I’m surprised it didn’t happen during the “Paris Hilton Goes Back to Jail” coverage.

Can’t believe this didn’t happen years ago in L.A.

Car chase sceens seem to happen about once a month out there.

They are supposed to fly at different altitudes, I believe.

It’s believed there were as many as five people aboard the two copters. News anchors reporting on the crash on KTVK appeared emotionally shaken.
