@superstig23 arrogance you say? i'm sorry but is it not more arrogant to assume having fun, is arrogant and 'exactly what is wrong with this country', than it is to think that enjoying life may be perhaps the single most important thing you will encounter during your life? SOOO basically what you are saying is anyone that is under the age of 10 is arrogant and exactly what is wrong with this country too. I see, wow. well have a nice day.
Wow, I take my previous comment back. It's not even Fox reporting (it's a local NBC branch), and yet there's so much hate against Fox News. Surprise, surprise.
@CuddlyBadger It's hard to hear, but when the woman first walks up she says "Police have just stopped it (meaning the sledding on the hill) because of your reporting." So I'm guessing the cops were alerted to the scene because of the reporter's story about the conditions on the hill, and they stopped the sledding in the process (which was apparently a long time tradition, at least according to this woman.)
I'm all for it, let the Stepford Trophy Wife Bimbo & her spoiled rotten kids keep sleding down an icy hill onto a busy street, with any luck a speeding Truck Convoy will do us all a favor and remove them from the gene pool. No big loss, that kind of entitled arrogance is exactly what is wrong with this country. If they take out that Faux News crew too all the better.
Wait... Is that lady complaining because they can't sled on a city street while its covered in ice and snow? That didn't look exactly like a 'back-road' or anything. That's a road. That people need. To get to work. Or the grocery story. Or the hospital... But no. You go ahead. And slide around in a tube because it's fun. Sorry for "ruining" that for you.
people shouldn't get upset over the local news cautioning the people. that's their job. it's not like there's a terrorist attack going on that they've chosen not to cover because they thought this was more important, they just figured safety on the roads was important enough, and it is.
Like a helmet is going to help if you get hit by a car. Seems like everyone there is very much aware that there are risks involved with life and fun, particularly tubing. Maybe if we all just realised that anything TRULY fun and exciting is probably going to have some inherent risks, we'd all see that this really isn't that dangerous, compared to, say, ice skating on a lake. Helmets please!:)
PS. I want statistics on human/car collision injuries resulting from sledding down this hill.
Let her go down that hill and get pancaked by a semi. The newscaster gave fair warning to those who'd pay attention. She can't force them to use common sense....!!
Dennis Mitchel is a punk and does not know how to have fun. Its alright for them to badmouth anyone they want. But turn it on them and they just shut the public off. Typical press.
@MikeCallsPizzaPlaces HA! lol that settles it, dennis's around the world are trolls and stuck up asshole cunts, like this guy, i met a guy online called dennis, some american and he thinks he's top shit and talks so much shit. lol
I grew up in Seattle, and every time it snowed enough for this hill to be covered for sledding, this bitch would always go on and on and on and on about how someone ruined her fun.
@PplFromUpStairs I know the woman in the white coat, and i know you are a liar. Plus, if people would stop ruining her fun, she wouldn't be up in their faces about ruining fun!
that "old man on a local news station" isn't that old, AND that local station IS the leading news station in seattle. which if you haven't heard is a pretty big city. also in the TOP 15 stations in the country... not small. you're definition of real news is probably CNN or something which cover pretty much the entire world. i love CNN because of that but you need to know the secifics of YOUR country. stop bitching on youtube its not like he will see it
@DrGonzoESQ - yeah, he must be a douchebag for thinking it's not cool for people to just break the law because they want to, and- god forbid- actually expecting people to behave like adults and not self-entitled jackholes like the woman who clearly felt she had some right to interrupt a newscast because of her OWN preference.
People like you are the problem with Seattle: beautiful city, far too many people who think that your whims are paramount.
@KaristaSwiss That was the apparent problem…the news van most likely was parked there for hours giving updates on the snow falling on Queen Ann avenues counterbalance. It's funny and pathetic at the same time.
She got in the reporters face because king 5 DREW POLICE ATTENTION to the hill,by reporting there for quite some time, and the police really didn't care afterwords, they even admitted they we're there due to the excessive reporting
I would have punched that dumb bitch in the face. There are worse things on life. Maybe she's off her meds. Sad part is, she's getting famous from this. I hope she dies.
@phukscreennames cops let them play there they were lucky go complain to the seattle police. Once that lady hits a truck she will think differnetly stupid cunt
It's pretty obvious that the police showed up because of the news vans, reporters, cameras, etc...so yeah. The reporters DID ruin it. After that the old man on TV does a "Wahwahwah?" No wonder he's on a small, local news station.
@ixnay66 Police were already there. Also, KING5 is the number one station in the number 12 market in the country. (aka, that's pretty big) In addition to THAT, Dennis Bounds has been well respected veteran of Seattle television for years. So yea, boo-fuckin'-hoo! Go find a park to sled in and stay out of the streets idiots.
Actually, yeah. That reporter screwed it for all of us that want to thin this earth of stupid people. It is a time honored tradition for dummies to throw themselves in front of motor vehicles. Could have been a new tradition to see whose blood splattered longer- kinda like a rat race. I have $10 on that chick (though, fairly cute) I can't shag her so why not see someone impaled on the grill of a WA state license plate?
The police stopped them becauseof close calls with buses you idiot! I think she needs a dose of full body cast, and then apologize to the reporter. Nothing wrong with going down the hill, but have just a tiny bit of responsibility you SELFISH, world revolves around you, awesome watching you make a fool of yourself on tv IDIOT. You do realize that if you die because you crashed into one of the buses passing by, that poor bus driver would have to live knowing that they killed someone. IDIOT!
@DrGonzoESQ Actually, I'm not... I just don't believe it was very becoming of that woman to do that to her. The reporter was doing her job and most likely it wasn't even her choice to report on this story (it's hardly a hard-hitting story)
It's against the law so the news station has every right to be there to report on it. If you don't think it's right to be against the law then go protest it and try to get the law changed!
@UpstateNYTV If the girl needs to get a life all the more the corporate media. The videos of cars sliding down the hills of Queen Ann are much more frightening than the sledders. The hill was closed to cars due to conditions. Cars before people and corporate profits and power before people.
@wjksea That's true in some ways so, yes I agree with you for some of that. But, is that really the best way to do it? Run into a reporter's live shot? She most likely didn't even choose to do that story and yet she's interrupted like that doing her job?
@wjksea I agree, let's have a life, I'm sure many kids have the time of their life's on days like this, also many parents can not afford to go Stevens Pass and paid $60 per kid plus expenses, this hill have to be close mandatory for people to have fun and have the police department there to make sure everyone is having fun in a safe way, WE own the city not the media.
@robertha Well, if you put it that way then sure, the reporter ruined the sledding... but the sledding woman ruined the reporter's live shot in-which she was doing her job.
@UpstateNYTV Maybe she was doing her job, but it was a live shot-- reporter working in a space where other people live, work, and play. In this case, the act of reporting itself interrupted what people were doing. She is not guaranteed the right to report uninterrupted there-- that's what the studio is for.
@spankminister That's true, it is to be expected that this can happen. However, I don't think it was becoming of the woman to do that. If someone came up to you like that you probably wouldn't like it very much because of the hostility. Why be so hostile? Try talking to the reporter about concerns nicely and you'd be surprised how responsive most would be to you. The funny thing is that people say that the media "blows up" things, yet almost all those people still watch the media, enabling it.
@UpstateNYTV She was being hostile? Sounded like she was a little upset because of the way she thought media basically dimed them out for having fun, but she was in no way hostile. Most people probably deal with or see WAY more "hostile" things than this on a daily basis.
@royalsw1 Well I think walking up to someone and interrupting them like that isn't just being upset, I would take it as being a little hostile. I mean, yes, its not like she was being violent or anything, but I wouldn't say she was just upset. In any case, the bottom line is that I think that it wasn't very classy for the woman to act like. Could have handled it better, that's all I'm saying.
Wow, overreacting much? If the police are showing up to stop you from sliding down a hill, it's not the reporter's fault. In fact, she said if you plan on using the hill, to be safe while doing so.
@bigfatpowerbar The police showed up because of the reporter, the van, the newscast, etc....
I would be pissed too. How often do they even get to do something like that? Once every 10 years maybe? Maybe the news team should actually report on real news. I bet these guys stand out in the rain with a microphone and an umbrella on camera every time it rains too.
@ixnay66 Queen Anne Hill? Thats Fing downtown. There are cops walking the streets in that area all day everyday. The reporter didn't even mention it being illegal, just recommended wearing a helmet. Do you really think the cops were watching the news, saw the people sledding and rushed out of the station? They were just driving by and noticed PEOPLE ON SLEDS IN THE DAMN STREET.
@mikefromtx83 If you had actually watched to original newscast she DID report that it was illegal and went on and on about it. They kept going back to her for hours and she kept harping on it. I could careless about sledding down a hill but I thought it was absurd. That woman has every right to complain about it. I didn't see this happen live, but I am glad someone said that to her.
@ixnay66 its fucking dangerous though i don't give a fuck if its traditional some traditions deserve to die or at least have cautions on them. Jeez ppl support all kinda stupid shit just because someone before did it.

Could have handled it better, that's all I'm saying.

Wow, overreacting much? If the police are showing up to stop you from sliding down a hill, it's not the reporter's fault. In fact, she said if you plan on using the hill, to be safe while doing so.

@bigfatpowerbar The police showed up because of the reporter, the van, the newscast, etc....
I would be pissed too. How often do they even get to do something like that? Once every 10 years maybe? Maybe the news team should actually report on real news. I bet these guys stand out in the rain with a microphone and an umbrella on camera every time it rains too.

@ixnay66 Queen Anne Hill? Thats Fing downtown. There are cops walking the streets in that area all day everyday. The reporter didn't even mention it being illegal, just recommended wearing a helmet. Do you really think the cops were watching the news, saw the people sledding and rushed out of the station? They were just driving by and noticed PEOPLE ON SLEDS IN THE DAMN STREET.

@mikefromtx83 If you had actually watched to original newscast she DID report that it was illegal and went on and on about it. They kept going back to her for hours and she kept harping on it. I could careless about sledding down a hill but I thought it was absurd. That woman has every right to complain about it. I didn't see this happen live, but I am glad someone said that to her.
