Anchor Sue Simmons Admits To Drinking Before News

[bigeman25]

Who the hell are these yahoos?????????

[DancingSpiderman]

....BUT... He's GAY... I mean... he's drunk.

[deilfgirl]

you know young turks, what you said on air about my sister could be considered slander and libel, assholes!

[tomthebomb990]

@deilfgirl do somethin?

[dukenthaylor]

C'mon, guys! Sue Simmons is MAD COOL! She is funny as hell! It's not like she's Julie Golden, or anything like that! Like Jim Jensen, that chick was MAD LEERY on the air! No, Sue Simmons is more like...Florence Henderson, if SHE were an anchor! MAD LOVE for Sue, Chuck Scarborough, Janice Huff, and Len Berman! But David Ussery is a big PUssery! XD

[Nilguiri]

Cenk is so funny and charismatic that Ana nearly wet herself at least three times! They make a great team. I love them!

[twins1729]

Cenk cracks me up!

"Zaney! Sippy!"

ROFLMAO!

[miguelin97223]

"What the FUCK are you doing?"

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

An Aussie guy was so drunk he couldn't stop laughing..

he lost his job :-)

[QueenLioness84]

My question is who was she talking to and what was going at the time that warrented that response from her?

[miguelin97223]

@ QueenLioness84:

it seems from the full promo clip that she might have been talking to her co-host. at the start of the promo, they flash a picture of them side by side in the studio. as sue reads the news teaser, the co-host guy had his head down. either he was supposed to read the tease and blew it, or else she was angry that he wasn't looking in the camera as they are supposed to do.

[QueenLioness84]

Cenk is a fool. He has the most impecable sense of humor.

[SquallCloud]

I remember her from when I was a kid. She looks good. Why are these people loaded at work? The hell?

[TillThenPlease]

LMAO! This one was hilarious!

[FirebirdCamaro1220]

Ana's loving it :)

[TheBackOfTheBoat]

Scotch scotch scotch, I love scotch, down into my belly, here it comes...

She's concerned her eyes look red? haha is she drinking or is she toking?

[18Scotland73]

im sure she was on something else aswell lol

[deilfgirl]

@18Scotland73 : she happens to be my sister jerk. she wasn't on anything loser

[Jeannenyc57]

@deilfgirl Sue is your sister?

[FoxHoundsfu]

@deilfgirl WHAT THE FUCK WAS SHE DOING?

[18Scotland73]

do americans call smoking weed - toking - aswell?

do u use the pharse Toke on?

[toxzen]

some do.

[oexnorth]

yes

[TheBackOfTheBoat]

occasionally...atleast I do.

[cool2girl27]

What the FUCK are you doing?

[Benzenering1004]

I'm backing up my boat bitch, what the Fuck are you doing? TeeHee!

[tomitstube]

2:06. lmao!

[sachaput]

Sassy Sue has been a NYC mainstay and butt of joke for years. There have been rumors that she drank and certainly that she could be a first-class b*tch to the crew. This isn't the first time she's had to apologize for some comment or mistake she's made either on or off the air.

[markvanslam]

I wanna see ana and cenk get shit-faced on the show. Thatd be a lot of fun. Id love to trip shrooms or peyote with cenk (hed never do those things), but he would have some awesome ideas and insights. But the dude doesnt even smoke. which is fine.

[leemailme]

On-air talent and actors are practically permitted to take whatever drugs they need to do their job. They're treated like royalty. As long as it doesn't become a problem, you probably won't hear about it in most cases.

[rcevey2]

At least she gave a real apology.

[TayGizzle]

they've obviously never saw Anchorman. "I LOVE scotch!!!"

[Joxman2k]

LOL at Cenk at 3:00 :D

"Liiive breaky news..."

:P

[dangerouslytalented]

The original host of the Today Show, Garroway, used to drink pure liquid codeine before going to air. The monkey used to bite him and he would keep on grinning throughout.

[markvanslam]

I think his codeine-b12 habit became a different kind of monkey for him, and it didnt bite him, but lived on his back. Eventually that habit caught up with him from what I remember.

[WolfArden44]

The F*** word is a staple word in NY anyway.lol, no-one really gets offended. In fact I think NY-er's invented it. haha. Funny shit.

[zknix20]

the fuck are you doing!!!

[soad52815]

sippy sue simmons

[angelicsoulz]

There should be a law that requires all news anchors to go on the air completely smashed.Then we could finally hear the truth from those lying fucks.

[upabittoolate]

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

[MrRebelIious]

reminds me of the movie anchorman.

[MLadyAzzera]

If I knew that millions of people were about to focus all their attention on me as I talk about the news, I'd have a drink before too to calm the nerves.

[agnosticautonomy]

that shirt is distracting.

[yuukisama2001]

OMG!! I almost spit hot tea on my work. Hahahahahahaha!!!!

[sliznim]

ana = smokin as usual

[brandtaylor93]

ron bergendy was the 70's

[cryingsoftly]

The humor quotient is why I miss having Marvin Zindler on TV.

[WellIAMScottish]

I'm not saying Glenn Beck ingests meth before every show, I'm just saying he acts like he does.

[audadvnc]

Cenk looks a little too familiar with that coke-before-the-newscast schtick, heh.

[LEV1ATHYN]

Cenk: Funniest SOB ever?!?! God damn this is a funny TYT episode.

[Cutchswife]

Sue Simmons sounds like a hoot! lol

[badtown88]

Good for her.

[DisturbedInOhio]

Why is are swear words so offensive to some anyways? They are just words. Even if someone were to cuss at you, does it cause harm or just take as a word. Take this as an example, "I am going to fucking kill you", what is offensive in that? The threat or the cuss word or is it now twice as bad? Just wondering what others think. I understand they could be disrespectful, but really what is the issue?

[kuunami]

I bet Sue Simmons is a monster in bed. I can tell.

[flowergirl1313]

One of the Chicago anchors was slurring her words earlier this year and people starting saying she was drunk. The channel had to admit that she had a minor stroke a few months earlier and that she slurs when she was tired.

[like2seeit86]

Sue is great wish more anchors were like her.

[MeowD2]

What the FUCK are you doing?

[facelesshorseman]

Must be a slow news day. Tipsy anchors, plastic surgery, the deodorant thing.

Do us a favor. On days like this, throw in something about Honduras, or Haiti, or just about anywhere in the S.West hemisphere.

Haiti is easy to find. It's just before you get to Aruba

[davethecaveman]

mmmmmmmmmmmm,boooooze.

[Drey4ltur]

*grins* 0:28 is the link to replay that clip...

hahahah xD i love this girl, and goddamit! cussing should be allowed on TV

[ownafied]

get real man most bus drivers are on drugs

[ndvuncle]

She most likely started guzzling the hooch whilst reading the latest news on the Bush Admnimnimistratioms about the wars and the economy going to... Hey! What the fuck are you doin?

*buuuuurp!*

[kuunami]

haha, true indeed.

[Bangwubbish]

In New Zealand there was a TV3 presenter Darren McDonald, who used to smoke P each night before presenting the news. For about a year he read the day's stories high as a kite...that is until he got caught and sent to jail for 8 months!!!

[PeteD07]

a wanda sykes moment

[krakhaid]

Personally, I think it's funny, mainly because I think drunks are hilarious.

[EvilFingers]

I wish the Media would cuss more often on Tv, it would break the monotony of them being too serious all the time and keeping it real.

So FUCK the Censorship In the US!

[Chimera1591]

I can't be mad at her. Sometimes you just have to catch a buzz before you can perform at optimum efficiency.

[Bigbossjin]

especially in customer service.

[Chimera1591]

True, true.

[OmarThePug]

Cenk smokes crack before every broadcast!

[Anidem9]

Rush Limbaugh pops in pain killers before every broadcast!

[DeletedDelusion]

Cause it hurts to spew all that nonsense that he does.

[johncrwarner]

Otherwise his own brain would attack him.

[TheMsboo35]

LOL...

[201curzonst]

She's kind of a mean drunk.

[NubianTribesman]

Cenk is funny as shit, anyhow I grew up watching Sue Simmons on channel four, I never would have guessed she was getting loaded.

[mosniper831]

all anchors should go back to drinking befor giving the news, you know there two kinds of people that don't lie, childern and drunk people.

[xadam2dudex]

these TV people must learn that the mic isn't always turned off.. I think those sound tech people leave it on on purpose

[tktru]

LET HER GO!!

[JonahDavids]

Glenn Beck snorts Zoloft.

[MobRulesNow]

Let's make a movie about the Anchor Woman! Will Farrel are you listening?

[DjMik101]

SIPPY SIP LOL

[leveque316]

That vid is SO OLD!!

[foureyes99]

Blame it on the alc-alc-alc-ohol...

[3star2nr]

alcohoooool

[pastafarian37]

she looks like a little older version of whitney houston

[Wiggymaster]

Keep fuckin' that chicken.

[HaT223]

i think beck does coke before his shows.

[3star2nr]

Beck does harder shit, coke mixed with rush limbaughs shit

[dackjaniels555]

Come on Cenk, Haha, Surely you've had a sippy sip before doing a show..

[odom602]

isn't she the what the fuck lady?

[aksmit01]

Perhaps this explains away the Crazy that is Glenn Beck. I prefer to believe he is a true psychopath.

[connberkshire]

"What the fuck are you doing?!?"

"Where's my fucking vodka?!?"

BWAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Tom Brokaw sounded drunk every night...

[edgeninja]

Not surprised. She once cracked up and fell out of her chair during a live newscast. She has a lot of trouble with words too.

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

A big drinker and news anchor on WABC in New York for some 18 years, was Roger Grimsby.

He was a superb newsman and gave me many great laughs with his wonderful sense of humor. When fired in 1986 under unfriendly circumstances with the network, WABC bought the building that housed his 3 favorite bars, and closed them all down just to spite him.

Tom Snyder on Grimsby:

/watch?v=KbwsJp8Mpro

[jamesyoun]

I would pay to see a TYT show done with everyone drunk

[JEudave13]

haha lol!!!

[amp1616]

totally with you on that!!

[billthebutcher2]

She has to do a newscast with the "Keep fucking that chicken" guy.

[goldenshots]

i was thinking that too lmfao +1

[billthebutcher2]

Good call! And have the guy snorting coke as the special correspondent.

[SinnFein4ever]

Who cares what celebreties do.

They're not like real people.

Most people will never meet one, and they don't really have the power to affect our lives unless we let them.

If people paid half as much attention to the actions of polititions as they do to athletes, singers and actors, the world would be a much better place.

I don't waste my time paying attention to them, or the latest trend/fashion, or "reality tv".

If I want "reality" I'll watch the news or a documentary.

[StewieSwan]

Add it to the sound board, Cenk.

wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute

WAIT A MINUTE

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!

[vwestlife]

At least as of this writing, Sue is not a "former" WNBC anchor, as Ana said. She is still on WNBC-TV News along with long-time co-anchor Chuck Scarborough.

[GunShyLoyalist]

"The f**k are you doing!" xD

[theraider]

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING? make that a quote on your little sound board

[MetalManDan7]

someones an angry drunk...

[cherrydog9]

I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly...

[dreamscometrue30989]

mmm scotch heck yes

[sealio9]

vvgbhlnjktrxrctvbkj

boooootay call

[NCAJAX]

Scared little cunts

[TheDuckofLaw]

showing up to work drunk is different than drinking a bit before you go to work.

[bangtizzy]

People who say 1st are douche bags

[Maziyar]

just make him the first to recieve 1 million thumbs down

[HouseNigro]

4th

[monkfan14]

TYT FTW

[ChristinaWatkinson]
