Mike, at the beginning of the piece as he was pushing her away she said something about how she was singing. I'm guessing she was drunk and trying to sing into his microphone before his piece started.
Uh, he thinks he's the person responsible for {A} protecting studio property and {B} doing his job to get a news story without being interrupted by some drunk. If she was trying to sing into his microphone and he had to get on the air, he had every right to push her away. That's the property of the studio, not her own personal toy, and he had a job to do regardless of whether or not she's drunk. So who is really being rude here? :rolleyes
Yeah, I was hoping everyone would see more of the humour in this video, especially when her duffle bag smoked him on the head (thats just priceless), but instead many have to discuss the reasoning behind it and the politics.
Oh well, if it gets locked, I'm gonna sue you all!!!
While I understand the issue, I thought any comment defending that woman would be an obvious joke.
I was kind of surprised at the guy's reaction. While it was appropriate, normally I'd expect a reporter to be more polite. I love the way he just shoved her away at the beginning, then turned to confront her after she hit him.
