If you can't afford to do it properly, don't.

And Fox, your news audience isn't 8 years old.

I didn't think it was so bad, certainly cheaper than hiring a bear from a zoo or something

If this story was done in New Zealand, someone would lose their job. It's so bad it puts a mockery on the world of news.

 

[Brent]

Ok, I don't think it is that big of a deal personally, its just a reenactment.

I love the tree climbing bit

I thought it was hilarious and it obviously was not meant to be taken seriously. I can't really see why anyone, anywhere would lose their job for this.

Besides I don't think any news reporter in New Zealand are ever going to have to cover a story about a bear in the woods.

 

[RJDiogenes]

That's great. They should have taken it farther and used a cardboard cutout of the reporter.

You mean he wasn't?!

 

[auntiehill]

Good Lord. That's just embarrassing.

 

[TheBrew]

I don't know what's funnier, the reenactment or the fact that the lady was flipping out because of a bear.

In New Zealand the public can get pretty pissy about stuff. Embarassment for someone like TVNZ would usually mean someone gets shown the door. It's happened before with interviews with certain people.

I could have alomost accepted it until the words from the "rabbit."

For what they actually used the cut-out for, couldn't they have just pulled up some stock footage of a ral bear?

 

[Locutus of Bored]

Thank goodness they had the cardboard cut-out there as a visual aid, because really "black" and "bear" aren't descriptive enough for most people to figure out what it looks like.

 

[SPOCKED]

It looked like a scene from The Office

 

[Small White Car]

I was most disturbed by the shot of a Robin as a 'pet.'

I can understand not finding a bear, but they couldn't even locate a dog in the neighborhood!?

 

[Deranged Nasat]

I love how they clarified that the actual bear was "real" .

I guess the giant bipedal rabbits they have running around the neighborhood scared them all off.

Maybe Ferretina the Weasel Queen runs this town? (I hope someone gets the reference ).
