a minivan owns a News Station.

A Chicago News Station had a Van crashing into its studio live and on air.

((Chicago police were questioning the driver of a minivan that crashed into a television news studio Sunday, moments after the station went on-air for its 10 p.m. Newscast. ))

Was this a soccer mom getting pissed off at the news by ramming her useless minivan into the studio? What happened to all the rear window Garfield dolls when she crashed into the window? What about all those soccer balls?

It's funny when the ones reporting the news become the news.

Here's the reaction to the aftermath and here's the live reaction to the crash from the newscaster. This guy's reaction still has me laughing. I hope someone makes a techno beat to his yelp/whoa. The Newscaster guy in the video is Ravi Baichwal, and he has a Wiki page, which currently has a picture of him reacting to the crash and information on the incident. Man, Wiki is fast.

If vans were to crash into locals news stations during every live news program, I'd start watching the local news again. By the way, I hate minivans almost as much as SUVs.

Update

Here's an update on that Minivan crash.

Note: read the scrolling sign above the building. I'd call that a 'No Sh*t' text.

And I just thought his reaction was very measured under the circumstances.
