Islander Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Russell Brand interview: You can see by the reactions of the interviewers that they find this Englishman to be strange and exotic, talking about him as if he's not sitting in front of them. He finds it very strange, but tries to be polite and sensible, in spite of their cluelessness and rudeness. You'd wonder how they would speak to someone who actually does come from a relatively exotic culture. The description under the screen depicts Russell as being odd, but just shows the writer for the yokel he is, along with the interviewers. They don't have the wit to follow what he's saying. That may sound harsh, but you would expect that big-city TV personalities would have been exposed to a variety of people in their work, and wouldn't marvel at what their guest is wearing and comment among each other about how unusual he is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7NXu9_UjZY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRFL Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 You can't write things like this... lol... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_IPh1Gm50k How do we know that KTVU actually rang the correct number? Did they actually speak with someone at the NTSB? If they got your number by mistake? what would you say if you thought it was one of your friends having a lend of you? hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 The airline is not amused: http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/07/15/wit-tu-lo-asiana-to-sue-san-francisco-tv-station-that-aired-phoney-racially-offensive-names/ Really, the news reader and teleprompter operator must not be too bright. Those don't even look like Korean names. It should have been as obvious to them as it is to the rest of us that they were gag names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 NTSB says it was a summer intern who confirmed the pilots' names to the media inquiry. further, this intern acted outside their area of responsibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Richard Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Asiana is planning to sue the station because it says it's reputation was damaged by this newscast. What, like crashing a plane on landing and killing two people didn't damage it's reputation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 I'm no expert in this area, however, isn't the design of this runway a challenge in itself, especially to a "non-seasoned" pilot? Yes, 1000's of landings have been made without any issues. However, to have a "sea wall" at the beginning of the runway that extends approximately 10 - 20 feet above sea level looks intimidating and potential fatal if not negotiated correctly. Some of you guy's that are pilot's may have a completely different take on this perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, like crashing a plane on landing and killing two people didn't damage it's reputation? What a bunch of crap. They are pissed that they crashed a plane and are going to sue the talking heads, and yes, as this prank proves, they are called talking heads for a reason. Try this: In Freudian psychology, displacement (German Verschiebung, 'shift' or 'move') is an unconscious defense mechanism whereby the mind substitutes either a new aim or a new object for goals felt in their original form to be dangerous or unacceptable.

Don't forget the pilot, Captain Sum Ting Wong, only had a grand total of 43 hours in that type of aircraft. We had a crash here a few years ago where the blame was pilot error. Everyone on board died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 The pilot's actual name is Lee Kang-kook and the co-pilot is Lee Jeong-min. If they're going to be remembered, they might as well be remembered by their real names. Incidentally, the most common family names in South Korea, in numerical order, are Kim, Lee, and Park. They make up 20 million persons, out of a total population of just under 50 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 It's all very well that people can express their opinions, but when speaking on a medical topic, or a legal topic, or other important type of topic, doesn't it seem like a bad idea that a person speaking on-air can say whatever erroneous thing they like? TV is the prime source of news and information for lots of people, and when they hear stupidity like that, they accept it as fact, spreading ignorance instead of education. An extreme example is the belief among some people in Africa that condoms cause AIDS. Some fool said that, more fools believed him, and now people are dying as a result of that misinformation.

Daddy Dee Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 grumpy? look up grumpy in the dictionary and there's his pic. hadn't heard that comment about children and autism. That's awful. he is right about the humor being juvenile and 4th grade level and in the poorest of taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
