D'Oh! Why You Shouldn't Wear Heels on Ice (Video)

Hate it when this happens, but damn it is funny...

Check out the background of this TV News live shot from KNBC reporter Mario Solis after the LA Kings beat the NY Rangers to win the Stanley Cup Trophy.

Watch the woman walking from screen right towards screen left.

Doh! Faceplant.

Someone did come to check on her, and she did get up quickly with the "I'm ok!" "Nothing to see here" look....

But it's still funny...

And the Sports screw ups continue: KNBC with the wrong Gagne

Courtesy: theroyalhalf/twitter
The end of Local TV Sports as we know it is quickly reaching its Nadir.

The sheer amount of royal screw ups by News people trying to do Sports because TV News Departments have all but eliminated local sports is mind boggling.

We showed an example earlier today.

Here's another. It comes from KNBC in Los Angeles. And though its not video, it is a box shot for a story that is supposed to be about the return of LA Kings forward Simon Gagne for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Only some genius at KNBC called up a picture of ERIC Gagne, the former relief pitcher for the Dodgers.

Sigh....

We'll spare you the lengthy rant about why Local TV slowly is drifting towards irrelevance. But this should give you a good idea why.
