  • the start of the video i thought it was going to bash furrys

  • this is probably the first time ive ever seen a video regarding furries where the comments aren't full of "YIFF IN HELL FURFAGS". glad to see that the bullshit is finally on its way to disappearing.

  • 00:54 Skroy!! :3

  • who is at 1:16?

  • The girl at 1:16 sounds like Olive the other reigndeer, I love that movie.

  • * furry

    Sorry typing on iPod

  • Omg I was hug by a furry ghost at my last con, I was wondering what hug me lol

    I think cirrus cool like Anime :D

  • 0:55 Poor Skroy!

  • @McSpazzotron i think Skroy was lucky!! he got a chance to put his nose up to public television... that's more than just Youtube man... i wish i was at a con when a news group appears, lol

  • @Shadowsphere1 Yeah, you're right. It was a great opportunity, and that was one of the most positive reports I've seen, right up there with the one from G4. I just thought he looked a little embarrassed.

  • @McSpazzotron i think he looked a little flattered and excited for the news group to be on him :D id go crazy and probably do the same thing he did

  • im a proud Mom of a furry ! Expression of personality and character is good thing ....

    Mama Wolf

  • @xxBBYSARAxx you seem like an awesome person :3

  • @xxBBYSARAxx you are TOO cool!!!!!! :D

  • Comment removed

  • What the wolf/dog/fox/hyena said was SO true (boundaries between people disappear so much when someone's in a fursuit)

  • Comment removed

  • Obligatory negative comment about furs: Fake and gay.

  • @SadeMasoch2327 John Waters.

  • This has got to be the most positive news report I have ever seen on fursuiters and furries.

    FURSUITERS ARE GREAT!

  • I doubt many people still remember that CSI episode.

  • @GunsOfThePhoenix actually a lot of people remember it

  • gota love the news always making things out to be criminal if they are diffrent or out of the box

    why compare these guys to a show on csi?? there like the happiest group of people i ever seen

  • "I bet you would let me give you a hug right now" lol

  • What an awful report. There "investigation" was basically some bumbling retard wandering around a some furfag convention getting hugs and basically speak a bunch of idiotic furfag propaganda. If they actually tried to study the subject this would be something more than some stupid factually incorrect fluff piece disguised as investigative journalism.

  • @MuffinOfFun It's not as in depth, but furries to me are like Trekkies and Star Wars fans and cosplayers.

    Then there are people who take it a little too seriously. The furverts, the people who marry in Klingon ceremonies, people who celebrate Life Day for reasons other than camp, having sex as Han Solo.

  • @JohnFordDanceTroupe

    Yes but the difference between the three is that side is nowhere near as prevelant in the Star Wars, and Star Trek communities as they are in the furfag community. Have you gone to FurAffinty or DevianArt? Most of it is horribly sexualized or designed to appeal to what you call "furverts".

  • @MuffinOfFun I've frequented FA and dA. And I am creeped out by this trend.

    However, I should condemn them just because they like sexed-up foxes and whatnot. Normal people have women tailored just for them, with magazines showing off their jugs and porno movies with horrible comedy.

    Yet, if you're so against the furry community, then how come you represent yourself with a Pokemon avatar? Oh, yeah - you're a troll.

    Goodbye.

  • @JohnFordDanceTroupe Can somebody say cop out? Seriously I find out you're losing in a debate so simply say "oh well your a troll" and run away claiming victory. Also the difference between the two is that one isn't borderline beastiality. I could go into detail dissecting your flawed argument but that would be waste seeing as the hugbox that seems to consume your "fandom" would come to your rescue. Also Pokemon doesn't meet the definition of furry, it's not anthro.

  • @MuffinOfFun You are a troll.

    That's all you live for: criticizing people that you find left of the mainstream. And I could see that through your profile comments.

    And to let you know, I'm freaked out by fursuiters. I don't want to be them - I never want to be them.

    What do you mean by hugbox? You mean you, you Palpatine-like figure? Because you argue some shitty arguments yourself.

    You're wrong - I'm wrong. We're both wrong. You're a troll, I'm a furry in the loosest sense.

    GET OVER IT.

  • @JohnFordDanceTroupe

    I live for criticizing people? No. I'm simply more straight-forward with people and I'm not afraid to tell someone to STFU or to stop acting like a dumbass, some people just don't take it too well and act like kids. My issue with all this lunacy is most people keep thier "eccentricities" to themselves as they should. Furries however feel they need to "express themselves" by showcasing thier idiocy and having a fit whenever someone says something mean. It's a cycle really.

  • @MuffinOfFun If you don't approve of furries, you don't approve of freedom of expression, but you have some valid points.

    However, your valid points become invalid mainly because your tone is condescending. You think the entire fandom is so evil that you fail to see the good in it.

    And about keeping your "eccentricities" to yourself: what about movie directors and their own style? Musicians? Have you forgot that humanity wasn't meant to be cookie-cutter?

    Fursuiting is stupid - that's a fact.

  • @JohnFordDanceTroupe Wow. You're really going for that argument? Okay If I didn't approve of freedom of expression I would propose an outright ban on furries. I think people should be able to express themselves in whatever way they see fit., and I will use my freedom of expression to express my distaste for furries such as I am now. Maybe "eccentricities" was a bad word, what I'm saying is that in normal human society there are things that people keep to themselves. Being a furry is one of them.

  • @MuffinOfFun Now you're starting to make sense. You're not as scathing as you were a few comments ago.

    I am not a guy who believes in outright furry expression, but I believe there are famous and extremely creative people who may be furries. Yes, keep it to yourself, but if you can't, go to a con. Yes, news pieces will try to make it saccharine, but they do that for EVERYTHING.

    If you have a problem with it, don't look at it. That's what I advise.

    I've seen stranger things - no problem for me

  • what is it with THAT episode that every one has to bring up lol. the rest of it was covered pretty well though

  • mmmmmmmmm I wanna go to a con soo bad, but I'm not allowedd D: I have a suit and everything! Furries ftw <33 alwyassss

  • Wow! I'm so glad furries were recognized! :) I saw this on CBS when it was on air. I jumped up and started dancing!

    Haha Furries For Life :D

  • @blahdob no u

  • Hey wow. Finally a decent portrayal. :3

  • "Source:Photo:Courtesy:" is fail, and there are a few oversights, albeit necessary for a two-minute report. And while there is effort to differentiate real life from that infamous incident, it's not too clear.

  • I loved CSI, and then they went on to bash furries in that episode. MOST AREN'T EVEN LIKE THAT WTF, they give us a bad rep >:O Thank God for CBS news!

  • oh wow, there actually complimenting furries. its about time!!!! stupid csi they can die!

  • but yeah FUCK YOU CSI, suck my ass

  • 0 dislikes! cool :P

  • Thank you Csi for fucking up my mom's idea of furries :/

    I'm a furry and I care what people think.

  • hell I'm a furry, and I like being a furry because it's like a seperate culture, no one really worries what race you are, as long as you have fur or a tail welcome : 0-), plus we have Amazing art and liturature, and some are starting to bring in music to the mix and it's full of open minded people who are either random, creative,or just plain silly. which makes me feel right at home : )

  • Everyone thank CBS for understanding furries and not saying we all yiff and shit

  • THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKY­OU~~~

  • lol, Cbs alerady tacked down two furcons this year, Wewt!

    both positive reviews :D!

  • SKROY!

    

  • thumbs up if you're a UK fur!

  • I like the guy with the gutiar(spelled wrong) he looks very cool

  • I really wanted to go this year. Aw well, there's always next year!

    CSI really screwed furries. Yes, there are those furries who do yiff, but I think that THOSE are the sick ones, not all furries! I'm a furry, and all I do is draw animals and anthros, dress up as an animal every now and then, and pretty much worship animals. I do not like the furries who "yiff" >_>

  • @StonehengeMusic I feel the same way. :3

  • WHEEEAAAAARRS T?HE CHAP STICK?!?!?! psssstickitickiboom paa paa paboom boom boom paaaa lmfao! wahst that vide ---> wheres the chapstick LOLOLOLOL

  • At least this tells different from that freakin CSI episode. Gotta say, I hardly even liked the CSI. This news report is a good use of reference to people who question us furries. Great capture! 5/5

  • I am speaking to all you other scottish furries out there please come out from hiding i feel like im the only scottish furry ever lol i am surrounded by new zealanders and its not easy being the only scottish furry there lol i feel like an outcast but they love me because my accent lol SCOTTISH FURS UNITE

  • Great to know that the media has started to look the other way on us furries!! FURRIES RULE, MAN!!! ALL OF YOU KNOW IT!!! :3

  • i love furries! theyre so awesome

  • This was my 2nd con,first time in suit, and everything that Uncle Kage said was running though my mind when interviewed was just where is he going with this?

    so i'm glad it really turned out great

    I was really impressed with everyone's costumes and the staff did a great job with the new hotel

    --Eternally Cloudy--

  • I had such a great time there. It was my first Furry Con and....WOW. It was fricken awesome never met so many nice people and to see so many fursuits was awesome! Hell, i sure got PCD (Post convention Depression). Can't wait to go another Furry Con and hopefully have a fursuit of my orca Skynook. ^__^ Hell yeah Furries are awesome!!

  • What is this?

    POSITIVE PRESS for the FURRY FANDOM!?

    It's a sign of the Apocalypse!

    ...and I'm glad. :'D

    Huzzah for accurate representation!

  • i miss Fc2010 D:

    Next Con: Fc2011 - Down Under!

  • Fur finally gets out in the open. Very nice. :3

  • 2,500,000!? Daaaaammmnn

  • Hey it's Jenna... damn wish I was there

  • The people are getting more the picture of the "real" furry, thanks for the upload. =D

  • Furry <3!!! What a great news story on us :D

  • great to see a postive story

  • This is a nice POSITIVE PRESS for the furries. and this makes me happy ^_^ YAY FURRIES

  • I'm glad SOMEONE bothered to investigate the Furries.

    Time for the world to know about the Furries. :D

  • Ok I pretty much want a fursuit now lol. Furry is awesome.

  • FURRIES ARE AWESOME

  • @Rikimaru735 Not exactly.

    I consider myself one and I've seen some nasty people in the fandom. The 40-year-olds who fursuit and look like Chris-chan.

  • @JohnFordDanceTroupe lol i see well thats just that 1 guy

  • @Rikimaru735 if thats a lie then i am not happy :D

  • Its great to see all the wonderful comments ... I think people are starting to actually understand the community better. The press seemed much more in tune with the fans than the others I've worked with. (I was the guy at the end, FC media) Props to all the kick butt suiters who did a wonderful job. Thanks Gabe for the post.

  • This was an awsome story, definatly major props to the fandom. and i loved how they spoke of the csi episode as a sensative subject. bout time people realize thats not what we are all about :D

  • Thanks for the upload :D this is a great story

    Wish they picked out the Golden Dragoness from the dancing clips though, she was awesome and the only thing 'furry' about her was her theatrical mask

  • PROUD TO BE A FURRY!

  • YEAAAAAAAH!!! = D Furry 4 life!

  • Props to the fursuiter who gave the reporter a hug!

  • Thanks! :3

  • yeah that was definatly awsome :D

  • @wildbilltexas

    That one was so one of my friends and he was hitting on me hardcore ^-^

  • But all that said, I think this was a good news story. AC had a few good ones too.

  • omg, looking back at that episode of CSI, it was like zombies in costume, there was no character, no believable action among the fursuiters. They're just walking arms straight....boring. Real fursuiters strut and dance and ANIMATE THEMSELVES! The bottom line of fursuiting is you are becoming a cartoon character! You have to be lively and energetic unless your character IS a zombie...and even then, you'd be doing your best to get your delicious braaaaiiinnnsss...

  • OMG! I still can't believe I'm playing guitar on the news! Should have played Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd instead for all the furries that couldn't make it this year :P

    AWESOME NEWS BROADCAST!!

  • What a nice portrayal! This video gets the Vin stamp of approval. :D And Skroy, you're adorable!

  • @ 0:54 Aww...cutest howl ever!

  • Nuh uh uhhhh x3

    *howls at you*

  • @SkroyWolfy lol Skroy I love your...squeak howls...too!! *hugs*

  • CSI at 1:45...and they didn't even remember to replace the template "SOURCE: PHOTO: COURTESY:" line at the bottom!

    All in all, a pretty damn good segment!

  • At least it's a positive segment on furries, though it gives the impression that almost ALL furries are fursuiters, which is far from the truth.

  • This is probably the best media report on furries I've even seen, they looked like they were having fun lol

  • @SqueeMouseofHorror being a furry is sooooooo much funXD

  • So cute at 0:55 :D

  • *blush!*

  • @SkroyWolfy

    *Pounces* "Boing"!  :D

  • I'm sooo happy the news didn't say anything weird about it :3

  • I am so happy to finaly see a polite and nice responce to a convention by the media. I think those interviewed comported themselves well also. They cute brown canine was prolly the best guy to pick out of all the suiters to interview. He never seemed to lose his happy disposition. :)

  • ya know, I didn't notice this until I was leaving the con (which ended today ._.), but the CBS offices were like, right next to the hotel.

    Hmm.

  • Overall, a good report! The dog fursuiter at 1:07 gives a perfect response why we do this: "Because it's fun!" -:D

  • Ahem, Canine.

    :P

  • to bad he didn't use more of "cloudy's" interview the reporter ask "What do you think about people wearing fur suits and Cloudy asked him "What do think of people who play with Model Trains?" LOL

  • While the CSI episode itself is 7 years old, there's probably a significant number of people who only saw it more recently, on reruns, the 4th season DVD set, or on video sites. TV episodes can have a significant "shelf life". So yeah, unfortunately there's a real need to debunk it still.

  • Mythbusters? xD lol

    lol thier only like a hours drive away from the fairmont xD

  • i guess we need another tv show to do one on us... csi is 7 years old after all.

  • Just got back from FC, my dad called and said "my people" were on the news. Thanks for posting!

  • Us fucking furries, am I right? lolz

  • I saw this on the local news a few days ago and decided to actually check out some furry vids on youtube. I had kind of heard of the fandom, but didn't really know anything about it. It's a lot cooler than I thought it was, just about having a good laugh and making the people around you smile. I don't see how it's any weider than people with a ton of tatoos, and you can't take those off at the end of the day XD

  • Dude, its epic!

  • It's so true! This was my first con, and over the period of three full days there, it just made my heart gush to see how many people were there to just be warm and friendly and spread some love.

    It's contagious!!!

  • Wow, that was actually a very positive news report! I'm impressed! And thank you for sharing this with us viewers!

  • I saw the news vans like seven times at least over the course of the con. Was wondering what was going on.

  • yo dawg, i heard you like dogs so I put a dog suit on your body so you can look like your a dog while hangin' your with dawgs

  • Lol sounds like hes more interested in the Money part of the Convention "blah blah, 2.5 Mil in the local economy"

  • Wow, a surprisingly positive and nice bit of coverage. I went to the con yesterday!

  • still at the con. lol

  • Danget! I misted the coverage... I swiched channels right once he news came on.... Oh well just saw it... + 5stars faved...

  • *claps* Thank you.. Thanks you world media provider CBS.. I love you and your TV spot.. Someone finally got it right..  Btw.. fuck you fox news for your inaccurate and judgmental tv spot.

  • huh... media is actually being positive about furries. sweet. They got some truth in there! "it's just about fun, just for laughs" "breaks boundaries and shows that it doesn't matter who you are" great. Im so faving this :) thanks Gabe :D

  • What's the name of the song the guy was playing on the guitar?

  • I believe it's "Mary Jane's Last Dance" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Hope this helps! ^^

  • That's the one! Thanks!

  • I wanna go but i done wanna tell my parents or get them invloved in any way...... =(

  • I'm on the same draft.

    I'm a mere 15 minute drive away and my parents make it so that it's miles away.

  • Whoo! I'm not the only one lol.

  • Well, you could try showing them this clip. It's a pretty positive one that seems like it would put a parent's mind at ease. Also, if you're local, you could bring one of your parents down to talk with some of the staff members so they can answer and questions they might be worried about.

  • This is awsome! This will finally put an end to CSI's stupid episode thought!

  • Wooo we're all having soo much fun! Heheh yay furfags!

  • @DZlife Hell YEAH! So how fun did you have last weekend?

  • It was great, I got to spend a ton of time of many of my closest buddies in the whole world ^___^

  • In a response to the people who thumbs downed your comment because of the term "furfags"...

    "Furfags" is one of those terms that's alright to be used by someone who is part of the community it describes, I would expect.

    Kind of like the N-word, how when African Americans use it it's alright, but when whites use it it's racism.

    I would expect "furfags" to be the same way.

    So I don't get why people vote thumbs down to acceptance. :/

  • 1:06

    she has a really nice voice x3

    To me i guess.

  • Yay! Glad you think so. I am her. I'm a guy. Sicilian by descent, so it's more of a Joe Pesci thing than a girl thing!

  • Ops sorry ^^

    And i missed the reply button adn hit spam.

    Dx sorry!

  • It sucks that I am not there. I am having to be bored back here in the UK doing well nothing much. Ugh! Bored Lol

  • That's a positive interview at all... Though, not all furries are fursuiters, it's one way of feeling and living the fandom x3 1:12 Is what I think...! And you can make people smile on a bad day too :D

  • AH! I missed it, oh well next year.
