"The View" Co-Host Doesn't Know if World is Round or Flat - Sherri Sheperd
Oh wow. Well, Barbara Walters sure know how to pick 'em, doesn't she. Here's the story from The Daily Background:I can’t believe this. One of the co-hosts of The View, Sherri Sheppherd, said she didn’t believe in evolution so co-host Whoopi Goldberg asked her if she believed the world was flat or round. She wasn’t able to answer, using the excuse that she was too busy being a good little housewife to think about complicated things like matters that science settled hundreds of years ago. Amazing.
Partial transcript:
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Is the world flat?
SHERRI SHEPHERD: Is the world flat? (laughter)
GOLDBERG: Yes.
SHEPHERD: …I Don’t know.
GOLDBERG: What do you think?
SHEPHERD: I… I never thought about it, Whoopi. Is the world flat? I never thought about it.
BARBARA WALTERS: You’ve never thought about whether the world was round or flat?
SHEPHERD: I tell you what I’ve thought about. How I’m going to feed my child–
WALTERS: Well you can do both.
SHEPERD: …how I’m going to take care of my family. The world, is the world flat has never entered into, like that has not been an important thing to me.
ELIZABETH HASSELBECK: You’ll teach your son, Jeffery, right?
SHEPHERD: If my son, Jeffery, asks me ‘is the world flat,’ I guess I would go…
JOY BEHAR: You know, didn’t some person already work this question out? I mean, why are we doing this again? (laughter, applause)

University of Florida Student Tasered During John Kerry Hall Meeting
We didn't know that former presidential candidate was actually up to anything until we saw this video from a town hall meeting at the University of Florida. It appears that this nut-case of a kid asked one too many questions (he can be heard asking if Kerry if he was a member of Skull and Bones Society at Yale) when he was ushered away from the microphone. Too bad that local police and security were really gung-ho on protecting the Senator. Six officers tried to restrain the guy who kept yelling "what did I do?" and was promptly tasered. Shocking video! All of these kids getting tasered just need to get off the crazy bus back to reality.

Stewie and Brian Griffin's Opening Song at the Emmy's
Here's the first of three clips of truly the only worthwhile parts of the three hour crap-fest known as the Emmy's as hosted by Ryan Seacrest. It all looked promising when Stewie and Brian come on to riff the TV crowd with their song and dance bit "You'll Find it On TV." It may not be the funniest Family Guy song but I'm sure it saved us from the horrible comedic timing of Seacrest ::shutters::.

We don't know if this bit was improvised or not but it was probably the funniest moment at Sunday's lackluster Emmy awards when The Daily Show's Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report's Stephen Colbert were to present the Emmy for best lead actor in a comedy show. The winner, Ricky Gervais of Extras! didn't attend the awards show so instead of accepting it themselves, they gave it to their friend and losing nominee Steve Carrell of The Office. Awesome job guys!

The Fox censors got a bit trigger happy when cutting away from presenters and winners at Sunday's Emmy awards. Sally Field's acceptance speech was cut when she said "God damn war." Allegedly, that phrase may not even be on the list of items required to be bleeped by the FCC. But they didn't even bleep her! They just cut to a shot of the ceiling. Really? As if Ryan Seacrest as host wasn't already a sign of bad judgment. I doubt they'll be winning any awards for this broadcast. Those Canadians didn't wimp out though. Here's the uncensored version as broadcast by CTV.

You never really know how well your morning newscasters can improvise until they report on something really unexpected happens on live TV. For the Houston NBC local 2 channel, the newscasters were just reporting on how a stalled truck on the Northwest Freeway at Senate was going to cause traffic to slow and then BAM! the truck gets smashed into by at least one car. A bit flustered they muddled their way through.

Another wonderful job today by the firefighters in the City of Brotherly Love as they battled a fire on top of a parking garage at 15th and Vine. Here's some great footage from a helicopter of them putting out the blaze. No one was hurt but a bunch of people had a holy sh*t moment when they realized they'd never get that stanky smoke smell out of their car.Labels: cars, fire, philadelphia

Miss Venezuela Crown Stolen During Pageant
What is going on with beauty pageants lately? There was a little crazy in the air at the Miss Venezuela pageant. Right after the winner was crowned, a man jumped on stage and attacked one of the contestants, stole her crown, and sat on the throne. Apparently he wanted the contestant from his state to win. He probably could have used his enthusiasm more wisely by putting Vaseline on the shoes of the other contestants. Hey, it's a start.

In a true "It's a Wonderful Life" moment, customers of British bank Northern Rock rushed the bank, withdrawing about $2 billion dollars after the bank asked for a loan from the government. So everyone panicked! It doesn't look like any old ladies were knocked down but they'll just have to wait and see if Mama Dollar and Papa Dollar make it through the panic.
