musicman Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 it is sad that a reporter has to follow the two sisters to their parents divorce proceedings while they are trying to keep a family matter private by going in via the tunnel system. as hillary said "you're a pathetic loser" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Ehhh. Kinda lame.The photographer got whacked pretty hard, though, it seems. Broke part of his camera.Here's the local report, narrated by Carey:http://www.myfoxhouston.com/myfox/pages/En...mp;pageId=7.1.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ V Lawrence Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 That looked weird. The cop didn't do anything? I'd imagine that when someone got physical, the cop would have told them to keep a distance, but if there was nothing he could do, what was the point in him escorting those people in the first place?I could care less about the case itself because I'm too busy poppin' my collar, but I always thought that police escorts were meant to deter and try to prevent physical confrontation from the people their sent to protect. Is that not accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cottonmather0 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Good for the girls and good for the attorneys. The idiot was there for no other reason but to get their faces on camera and is literally stalking them the whole time. So what if they are "public figures" in a "very public building"? Jeez.

FilioScotia Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Isiah Carey gets in a small scuffle with Duff's lawyer trying to get video of the sisters leaving a Houston courthouse. Thanks TMZI don't watch Fox local News, and this kind of "reporting" is just one of the reasons. What's really disgusting here is that this idiot reporter and his idiot producer actually believe that harrassing public figures this way means he is a good reporter. I think it just proves he's a jerk who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a TV camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonmacbro Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I'm really surprised the cop didn't do anything. Looks like he was holding his head down like he didn't want to be identified.While I am no big supporter of reporters, movie stars, etc. this just looked like an incident that didn't have to happen.

TJones Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Isiah cried, " Hillary's Mom ELBOWED ME !" , cry me a friggin' river Isiah. If it would have been my two daughters he was stalking, I would have left Isiah lying in the fetal position on the floor, looking like the bloody turd that he is.

DJ V Lawrence Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 There's nothing the cop could have done as it happened in just one quick moment.He could have told to stay at least 10-15 feet back, could have stood a distance behind them and told all the media people "don't get past me, and if you touch me, I'll have to defend myself", or could of at least told the people what direction to go before they were stuck in the stairwell for the camera dudes to get the pictures they were looking for and let the media run the courthouse.

cottonmather0 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I know his blog is old news on this forum, but has anyone else checked out what he wrote about this over there? Ignoring the fact that he keeps referring to himself in the 3rd person by the (stupid, imho) name of his blog - "The INSITE gets cursed at by the Duff sisters!" - he also seems to be blurring the distinction between his time on the clock for Channel 26 and his own personality on the blog. It's like he went there at the behest of his employer, did a report, and then took all the raw footage and put his own copyright on it. Weird. Does he always do this? Why does Channel 26 let him act like such a self-promoting buffoon under the aegis of their news department?Also, check out the comments section, most posts get 2-3 maybe 5-6 comments, this thing has OVER 130 at last count, most of them broken out along racial lines. Weird. As if criticizing this guy for being such a bore stalking two young women whose parents are divorcing makes someone a bigot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he was doing was following them as a reporter. Just because it's not desirable doesn't necessarily make it wrong. If anything, it's the fault of the guy who pushed him into the wall.

Jeebus Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I'm not for certain, but I think that Isiah has a right to his space. All he was doing was following them as a reporter. Just because it's not desirable doesn't necessarily make it wrong.He was doing more than following them. What was the point of his story? What was the goal of it? He looked like a desperate paparazzi trying to get a million dollar shot. I've said it once, and I'll say it 100 more times: Isiah Carey is a no-talent hack. As if his poor reporting wasn't proof enough, his racist blog only reveals his lack of talent, which he attempts to hide with sensationalism.If anything, it's the fault of the guy who pushed him into the wall.The camera man pushed the guy on the right side to the left so that he could get past him first. The guy from the Duff party pushed him back.That cop needs to be investigated as well. He was obviously there to collect a check - not do his job.

spikey2 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 If tabloid TV and print media didn't pay these clowns for this stuff they would be out covering real stories, and most of the so called journalist would be selling newspapers on the street corner.
