I’d like to think that I’m over viral videos of local news mishaps, that I’m above being amused by them and laughing at the foibles of small(ish) town anchors.  But that would be a lie, because I love watching them.  Imagine my delight at this recent post on Deadspin that features a Rube Goldbergian series of gaffes that build hilariously in the first minute of the newscast and climax with a camera that is doing its best to make sure the reporter is not in frame.  It’s like it’s the first day on the job for every single person in San Diego’s “10 News Communication Center.”

Update: And the video has been removed.  I’ll see if I can find it elsewhere.

Update: Found it!  Thanks for the redirect, Best Week Ever!

Update: It’s gone again.

Vodpod videos no longer available.
