There's Hope America: Anchor Walks Off Live TV, Refuses To Report On Kardashians
Is the distracted citizenry beginning to wake up? We can only hope so. Giving hope to Americans everywhere, after covering the usual local news, Orlando-area news anchor John Brown was transitioning into a segment about one of the Kardashian daughters recently naming her new pet rabbit "Bruce," he stood up and walked off set exclaiming, "I am having a good Friday, so I refuse to talk about the Kardashians today, you are on your own, Amy. I can’t do it." As the program’s co-host storms off set, he can be heard off-screen shouting, "I’ve had enough Kardashians. I can’t take any more Kardashian stories on this show." A message many may start to heed...
See full clip here...
How many people do you know that would agree with the following statement? “I’ve had enough of the Kardashians…I’m sick of this family! (They’re) a non-story!” I believe most of us, including myself, would shout “amen” at the top of their lungs like it’s a Sunday in the South if we heard someone in the media utter those words. Well, get ready to holler.
The above exclamations are actually direct quotes spoken by Orlando-area news anchor John Brown during a live broadcast of “Good Day Orlando” on Friday.
After covering the usual local news, the show began to transition into a segment about one of the Kardashian daughters recently naming her new pet rabbit “Bruce.” (Just typing that sentence made me want to launch my fist into the computer screen where my pupils are currently fixated. Rest assured, I’m still typing, so I obviously mustered up all of the self-control in my being and refrained.) That’s when Brown interrupted the correspondent reporting the “story” in mid-sentence:
“I am having a good Friday, so I refuse to talk about the Kardashians today,” said Brown. “You are on your own, Amy. I can’t do it.”
As the program’s co-host storms off set, he can be heard off-screen shouting, “I’ve had enough Kardashians. I can’t take any more Kardashian stories on this show.”
After a replacement anchor rushes in to fill the void left on the morning show’s couch, the fed-up Brown — whose microphone stays on despite walking off set — can be heard continuing his rant away from the cameras: “I don’t care about this family. I’m sick of this family. It’s a non-story!”
The initial member of the news team that introduced the story agreed with Brown’s sentiments, but continued to talk about the Kardashians anyway.
Brown later posted video of his outburst on Facebook, saying, “Sorry I lost my mind a bit, although it was partially in jest!... I did feel better though after I was done though.”
All-in-all, I would say Mr. Brown kept his composure and handled the situation better than most people given the task of reading celebrity gossip disguised as news for a living.

I wouldn't fuck kim even with caitlyns dick

nail gun that sum bitch
He should not have returned to the set until the story was over.
He didn't. The guy there was the replacement dude.
Yep. Always another wuss ready to step up.
He's right, people are not interested in the Carflashians or Carpathians. They are interested in what the crypto-anarchists are doing next.... the most important monetary rebels in 500 years.
So why is this news? and who gives a shit?
What has he got against lard? Lardassology is the most important subject in the economic world.
What is it with guys named John Brown, not content with the status quo...
His joo masters will call for his head!
Fuck the Kardashians! They make money for doing nothing but promotingfalse values. I turn of everything that mentions their name...and that douchebag Kanye. I don't care if he has talent or not, he's an asshole.
I went to type Kardashian into a text I was sending to my friend about how my new car and its rear wheel drive tosses the car's ass around like a Kardashian, but it autocorrected to "lard ash can". That seems about right.
Seems funny when a news anchor finally decides a certain level of brain numbing media rubbish is enough even when his paycheck depends on it.
Almost as bad as the endless popup ads here
Can we get this guy a job asking Janet Yellen questions? Seems like he has some genuine insight on matters of importance. Granted, the job would be a temp position...
I'll save everyone the effort, and present the summarized version of my findings here: Kris Jenner is a high witch. Kim is a witch. They are a family of witches. It stands to reason Bruce was bewitched, but it could also have been old-fashioned mind control/brainwashing too.
If you want to watch and worship a coven of witches, go right ahead.
What did the witches & covens ever do to you?
At least real witches have real talents, unlike this family 'murka is so obsessed with.
I dunno ... I am a bit worried about that rabbit. Did they call him Bruce because they plan to cut off his thingy? Will PETA complain? Does the rabbit actually want to be a girl? I'll be glued to the TV waiting for updates.
Its uncanny connections like that that make me wonder if SkyNet is already self-aware.
Yeah, but who knew the Kardashians were preppers? Rabbit meat is an excellent way to go. Especially if it's called Bruce, I suppose.
We need a new show, "Prepping with the Kardashians".
And she has more calories stored in that ass than I do in my bunker.
True. Camels survive in extreme heat conditions using the same method. However, being prepped-minded, don't you think it's a bit lacking in forethought to have a rabbit named Bruce without Bertha his mate? Or have rabbits succumbed to gender confusion too? Our local wild ones don't seem to be suffering in this regard. Perhaps humans have become too domesticated.
Miffed
I haven't watched one minute of the "Keeping Up With The..." television show, and I sometimes feel I'm all alone in that respect. I can't help but see their images plastered all over the gossip rags at the supermarket checkout, and that just reinforces my revulsion for this 'family'. What a bunch of freaky people!
To be fair, I was also considered to be a 'freak' in 1975, but that had a different connotation, while at the same time, Mr Jenner was hailed as wholesome, handsome national hero that any mom and dad would be proud to count as their son-in-law.
The times they are a'changing.
You are not alone.
I haven't watched one minute of the "Keeping Up With The..." television show...
Same here.
Television broadcasts are transmitted at a frequency which hyponotically enhances suggestability.
Personally all Television is dangerous in that regard.
Even having one blaring in the background, where you are supposedly not paying attention to it (YOU ARE...Your subconcious is picking up the transmission.), is dangerous to turning off your ability for Situational Awareness.
A movie which needs to be seen by everyone is "They Live".
When you turn off that TeeVee Programming the World appears to be a very different place.
Do not watch the damned thing...at all. Avoid places where the signal is being received. (Shops, Bars, Casinos, etc.)
Even the Video Screens on Casino Slot Games are tuned into that frequency. If you ever walk into a Casino and watch the Zombies throwing Hundreds into the Skinner Boxes and sit there, spin after spin, in a hypnotic trance state, it becomes readily apparent.
Yeah, but the zombies in the casinos looked like that and had those same exact stares long before they went digital.
Humans are genetically disposed to addiction, shiny screens are just the latest thing our species has found to fill the need.
Would be one of the few benefits of an EMP attack. No more electricity means no more Kardashians. Literally. Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison and Philo Farnsworth must be filling their coffins with shit watching their respective discoveries and inventions being used to broadcast these assholes daily.
We shouldn't forget how Kimberly won her fame...
Taking rapper RayJ's purple crayon right up her poop shoot, video'ing it, and letting it 'leak'.
He's jealous of his brother Leroy..The baddest man in the whole damn town!
R.I.P. Jim Croce.
"All the downtown ladies call him TreeTop, but the men just call him 'Sir'"
I suppose this story is somewhat entertaining - I mean who doesn't like to see a public face melt down live on the air - but now I just have to know: is Bruce the rabbit male or female? It has left me hanging and I find myself wondering about this all day now. Perhaps a follow-up piece? I just gotsta know!
/s
Bruce the rabbit, boy or girl, will taste like chicken when the shtf.
The older a rabbit is, the harder it is to skin. That's one episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians that I might be willing to watch. "Bruce Becomes Lunch."
I share your pain, the bunny he or she. We might never know the truth after the brutal outburst. Some people just cannot put their priorities right.
Transgender rabbit
I am all for the NSA implementing a kill pulse that goes through the TV or PC for anyone who reads anything about that marketing project called Cardasians.
It doens't matter what sex it is, it only matters what sex the rabbit FEELS like it is.
#EQUAL RIGHTS
#TRANSGENDER RABBITS
I don't get it. Who are the Kardashians?
Jeez, I really wish I could make that statement.
Why doesn't he walk off the screen when they talk about the Fed and every time one of those zipper heads opens his mouth its reported, like it really materially fucking matters. Or when they talk about Obama and how he is absolutely fucking over this country with Iran, global warming, racial divide, health care. Or how about when they put that ugly cunt criminal Hilary on TV and her campaign slush fund, Benghazi, private emails and server.
Our country is so morally corrupt only a revolution is going to help improve matters. It's coming and so is ..... Back to Kim
patience young padawan... that time will come... soon I hope
In the grand scheme of things, the Kardashians aren't important, at least not anymore so than any other dysfunctional family. The Fed, on the other hand, has an enormous amount of influence and power. I wouldn't walk off the set if I were an anchor when somebody started talking about the Fed. I'd start ranting.
<- Who are the Kardashians, and who cares?
<- OMG! Leave Kim alone!
A wuss junked you. Sheesh, this is FIGHT CLUB! No pansies allowed.
Always another wuss ready to step up.
He saw his opportunity for fame and went for it! Whore.
The guy that stepped in was Jayme King, the weather guy.
This morning show has been on with this cast for quite some time and they rule the ratings for their time slot, or used to.
DaddyO
Aaaaaaarararraagggaggagahhhhhh
Please, I haven't seen any television like this is years.
Damn you all, damn you all!
My faith in humanity has been scortched.
OK, I'm off to a meeting for some salvaiton and redemption
This shit is just sooooo wrong.
Why? How can they do this to us?
I mean if they want the plebes asleep at least give them some Ren & Stimpy entertainment, or Rocky & Bullwinkle, or, maybe even some Marx Brother movies, but the Kardashians, again?
Fuck this! Just to get even I'm gonna rename one of my dogs Knukies and the other Mooch.
Why? Are they neutrered?
*not meant towards you, kuk.
brucie
I'm horneeeeeey!
(Victor/Victoria)
me so horney. me love you to much. anyting yu want, 10 dolla. me love you long time beaucoup cheap-cheap
Sheeeeit man. Why just last night I watched the entire uncut Full Metal Jacket. Ermey should have won an Oscar for that performance.
"There is no racial bigotry here! I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers! Here you are ALL equally worthless!"
"Get the fuck down off of my obstacle. Now. Move it! I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world. I will motivate you, Private Pyle, if it short-dicks every cannibal on the Congo."
Ren & Stimpy was genius parody. In that world, you were either crazy or mad.
Not to mention the Adult Parties. Best porn.
Hmm. I couldn't tell them apart.
Bruce? Did the rabbit chop off its balls and start wearing make up?
Bruce/Caitlin still has his He Man plumbing and has said that he still like girls.
Now, back to the traffic report.
Guys like Mr Jenner used to be known as cross dressers. Don't know where the transgender label comes from but it sticks.
Does that make him trans-lesbo? What is the correct PC term, comrade Trotsky?
Pansexual.
How about "trisexual"? 'Cause they'll try anything. (budumpshh!!)
(apologies to Rodney D.)
Yeah, I'm a BuySexual... the only way I seem to get any these days is to pay for it.
Instaclassic...
Kind of like my debit cum Credit card...
Hormonally confused!
Pervert.
Yeah, does Brucelyn use the mens or ladies room when in public? Can you imagine walking into the bathroom, you've really gotta go, and there he/she is!?!?!?!??? Not proud of this, but we would scream like a girl.
I first witnessed this in 1969 at a very tender age at Orly .
I still remember my mother couldn't get me outa there fast enough.
Still remember the face, wig, makeup, madams apple, the 5 oclock shadow, & feet pointing towards the wall in the stall.
They use which ever bathroom they wish as I witnessed one then the other at the terminal.
Sorry, all news dudes look alike to me. That's why I haven't owned a TEEVEE for many years.
Is it worse for one's future career and life to call Mao an SOB in China or to refuse to report on the Kardashians in America?
Yes.
On the one hand, we have 4 fingers and thumb on the other, a conundrum.
But as Al Gore said, "I knew Mao and he was one son-of-a-bitch."
And now, let's go back to our traffic report; Caitlyn, over to you!
god forbid our media report on real news:
Violence erupts as Greek island of Kos struggles with migrant crisisClashes broke out on the small Greek island of Kos on Tuesday as the local government struggled to cope with the mass arrival of migrants and refugees landing on the island in small boats and rubber dinghies from nearby Turkey.
The Greek islands have been overwhelmed by arrivals in recent months. According to UNHCR, at least 124,000 people have arrived on the country's eastern islands in the first seven months of 2015, a staggering 750% increase on the same period last year.

... all Blowback from the Bush/Barry/Eu wars
China bans bad news altogether but here they just drown it out with 24/7 crap about transgenders, fat asses and crime reports. Different techniques but same distraction result.
... all Blowback from the Bush/Barry/Eu/ & islamic wars
just be glad it is not blowback from a kardashi-ass. could be fatal
Hey, her g-strings sell for big bucks on Ebay and the used ones even moar! Her 5-year-old bicycle seat went for $$$$ other day.
The buyer was someone from Princeton, NJ from what it shows.
His is a good example to all cross dressers who get boob jobs. Don't drive and admire them at the same time, it may kill someone.
Kliguy he should be fired, he is hired to read the news the station wants read, and paid well to do it, now he wants to be the director, this guy is a loose cannon on deck and should be replaced!
No way! That's entertainment!
Maybe you’re right – and his contract defines his job like that: ”Read the news from the teleprompter and nothing else”.
But then he could easily refuse to report the name of a pet-rabbit or any other information related to ‘gossip’. You can define news as “important or interesting recent happenings”. The name of a rabbit is neither important nor interesting = he could refuse to report it on the basis it’s simply not news.
Well, at least the conversation didn’t go totally into the toilet by bringing up Caitlyn Jenner.
Bruce, the tribute rabbit.. should have been a squirrel.
But, but everyone wants to know, will they cut off the rabbit's wee wee not not????
Caitlyn wants a pet gerbil.
+1 LMAO! That was funny!
nah, he already has a gerbil ranch, they already did that episode. thats so last week man
Will he be fired? ... and hired into the Trump team?
He came back
It's the year 2015, so there's no shame in homosexuality.
More on topic, this clip was riveting. A nonapologetical statement against America's rabid consumer culture, and one issued from within no less.
Our rabbit consumer culture. I know that's what you meant to write.
Gerbils are the new 2015
And now on to traffic, and over to Caitlyn with an accident report!
Thank you for correcting us all, Larssen. You can all pick up the chalk and write 100 times on the blackboard, "no shame being a faggot, it's 2015, the Prez says so".
Incidently Larssen, I thought the story was about rabbits, not homo's.
"It's the year 2015, so there's no shame in homosexualism", but when Bruce renounces his gender and transforms to another gender artificially, that's a whole other ballgame. Probably only a very small percentage are justified, the rest, like Bruce, are just whacko.
In nature though, if members of a species can't reproduce, that line is doomed to extinction, nature's way of eliminating aberrations.
Rational vs emotional.
Yes but was the rabbit a male or female?
pods
It hadn't decided yet.
It "identifies" as female. And black. Next story will be about how the rabbit applied for a job working at the NAACP in Oregon.
#rabbitlivesmatter
Laugh now, but give it a week and you'll find "Bruce the transgender Rabbit" is Trump's presidential running mate.
We will take Trump/rabbit over Hitlary/Bernie "The Flaccid Hammer" Sanders any day of the week. At the very very least, The Don is addressing the debilitating brain disease known as political correctness which affects two out of five Americans leaving them drooling progressives incapable of rational thought.
And Bernie is promising to destroy the big banks. Which do you think might be more important? And which idea do you think it might be more useful to put out in the public domain?
Anyone who promises to destroy those motherfuckers is a friend of mine.
Mouthing off about political correctness, an easy target, is a poor substitute for a hit list like that presented by Chupacabra below. It's just a slight variation on business as usual.
Promises promises. Utopia exists always in the future with y'all. Did you see Bernie fold like a cheap card-table when confronted by the blacklivesmatter girls? But he's going to stand up to the Rothschilds! Sure he is. Also, the reason that the topics on Chupacabra's list are never spoken of on MSM is that it would be POLITICALLY INCORRECT to do so.
No, I didn't see that. But I do know from bitter experience that there is little to be gained trying to talk down mouthing-off ghetto trash. If he punched them out he'd be finished. Or maybe not....but I doubt he's the punch-em-out type. Be nice to have a Vlad running eh....
And I think the reason topics like Chupacabras are never mentioned goes WAY beyong political correctness. They are black-list topics. Anyone who dared mention them would lose his job immediately, and maybe have a nailgun accident shortly thereafter. Political correctness is the media self-censoring. This is not self-censoriing, it is state control. As was mentioned somewhere else in this thread, CIA director Casey claimed/admitted that the CIA "owned" every jouralist of consequence in the USA, and that was 30 years ago.
Trump has a big mouth, that is refreshing, but he doesn't go anywhere near the things that really matter, so far as I know. If he doesn't provide anything more than entertainment value, he is no use to this country.
Long Caitlyn's dick!
FORWARD SOVIET!
Thanks so much for sharing with us.
if he only knew how deep the rabbit hole goes
this man just started to feel the effect of the red pill lol
Here's a list of topics these Presstittute's can inform the brain dead public on :
1. Bengazi
2. fast & Furious
3. Arming, funding & training the same terror organizations the Criminal Fraud UNITED STATES, CORP. INC. clIm to protect the American People from.
4. Torture
5. NSA Illegal wire tapping
6. Why Criminal at large Hillary Clinton hasn't been arrested for ( See # 1. ) & email crimes / Treason.
7. CIA drug money & Laudering through the the tax payer bailed out TBTFBANKSTERS.
8. QE & Economic Terrorism by the Criminal Private Enterprise of The Federal Reserve.
9. Illegal Wars of Aggression by the Criminal Fraud CEO of the UNITED STATES, CORP. INC.
10. Assassination kill lists
CNN just spend 20 seconds explaining that the pentagon has no idea what went wrong with the multi-billion dollar program to train 60 moderate syrians to finally bring peace to the middle east. But they are going to try again.
Then they spent a full minute showing a multi-bicycle crash during a race in Utah. over and over again.
"But the fudgepacker emperor is not wearing any clothes!" With apologies to Hans Christian Andersen
I will add:
11. The corporate coup d’état of the US ‘democracy’ – now close to it’s final stage (the final one being explicit totalitarianism vs. todays implicit)
12. The (by definition) Ponzi-scheme called the FED (including bashing the name itself – it’s not federal, there’re no reserves and it’s not a bank)
13. The mirage of a ‘two party’ political system – and the reality of the Oligarchy
14. The CIA-coups around the world (most current of course Ukraine)
Get me Ron Burgandy!
This should satisfy your demand. 'Wake Up and Smile' SNL skit sums up the typical television readers capabilities.

I refuse to post on a website that posts a story about a news anchor that refuses to report about a Kardashians rabbit. Oops!
Finally. SOMEONE STANDING UP FOR AMERICA!
"Clearly a ZH reader ..."
Maybe a few years ago. It isn't like all the Benghazi/Lois Lerner/Trump-Rand/etc bullshit isn't in the same category, but the new ZH readers are infatuated with mindless entertainment.
It sems many new ZH readers also belong to the trump thumpers troll club....quite the fall, it seems ZH is making it's by-line come true live and in real time...

He got up as a melodramatic act in order to talk about the Kardashians. You didn't get that?
Got the same impression - it was staged.
There isnt any hope for America.
There's hope yes. Kim, Caitlyn, and Megan can start their own show and of course have Whoopie on there for their diversity quota. Jerry Springer can make weekly guest appearances.
That be the new merika!
Bring back the Gong Show
Now that was entertainment. Especially wasted, as in way the fuck too high to be able to even dial for a pizza.
What time does Oww My Balls come on?
It starts right after the "Who Be My Daddy?" show.

Good for him. Tell those satanic wanna be jews to fuck off and suck your dick.
protocol #1 - Take control of the media and use it in propaganda for our plans
protocol #13 - Use our media to create entertaining distractions
The sad part is all what you are saying is true. The really sad issue is it goes way further down the rabbit hole and more complex in controlling and molding minds.
Who are these Kardashians?
I dunno.. Sounds like they either make car dash boards or dash in front of cars..
If you are correct, I hope it is not the first one you mentioned (safety first!).
Oh,, They're any people from here:

Based on that aspect of their physique, we can be sure that they're not Lilliputians. There is a physical resemblance to the posterior of the Houyhnhnms, but the actions and attitudes more closely resemble those of the Yahoos.

But it's the job of the media to keep the populace distracted from our real problems and from knowing who runs this country:
"The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media." -- William Colby, former CIA Director
Who rules America?
The secret collaboration of the military, the intelligence and national security agencies, and gigantic corporations in the systematic and illegal surveillance of the American people reveals the true wielders of power in the United States. Telecommunications giants such as AT&T, Verizon and Sprint, and Internet companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Twitter, provide the military and the FBI and CIA with access to data on hundreds of millions of people that these state agencies have no legal right to possess.
Congress and both of the major political parties serve as rubber stamps for the confluence of the military, the intelligence apparatus and Wall Street that really runs the country. The so-called “Fourth Estate”—the mass media—functions shamelessly as an arm of this ruling troika.
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2013/06/10/pers-j10.html
The term used to describe these Criminal Megalomanics is:
"The Global Criminal Oligarch Cabal Bankster Intelligence Crime Syndicate"
Long winded. However, it describes the Criminal Enterprise to a T.
I wonder if that is one of the admissions that ultimately got Bill Colby killed. He thought he was safe in retirement. The See Eye Aye employees are only one canoe trip or nail gun away from being "take care of."
