Question: what is the best example of a slow news day? Answer: CNN host Rick Sanchez covering his own report of the Pacific Ocean Tsunami from two days ago. Twice! Some context: Sanchez was brought into weekend duty to cover what seemed to be an enormous and unfolding story at the time. And the passions of CNN’s wonderfully mercurial news host may have got the best of him as he ~~berated~~ chastised a guest scientist in a way one doesn’t normally see on live television.

Thank goodness Sanchez isn’t afraid to own up to his mistakes, nor more importantly, have a laugh at his own expense. Evidenced by the following video.

And following clip is the orginal “Angry Rick” that must be viewed to fully appreciate.

CNN, rick sanchez, Tsunami

When he said ‘The Yang of that yin’ I had to laugh when he later DEMANDED that a scientist speak ‘English’ (which he did, just fine). You can only describe this as an ‘Epic Fail’ by Sanchez, made worse (for him) thanks to the segment being immortalized on YouTube.
