  1. You’ll notice that (as would be typical of a reporter) he ran into his “left” side.

  2. Ouch! I feel that guy’s pain. I have accidentally walked into poles like that and it really hurts.

  3. You mean to tell me that the municipality doesn’t pad its posts? I see a law suit coming.

  4. Did anyone check to see if the pole was ok? When something as dense as a reporter hits it, there could be serious structural damage.

  5. I say that lawyer guy is a real Pro – the way he dusted off that reporter! Have to look closely, but did you notice the slight hip block just before the reporter guy ate the pole?

  6. Hard to feel sorry, actually I don’t. I wondered if it actually knocked any common sense into him, but then I remembered he was a journalist any didn’t have any to begin with.

  7. did that in central america, I was “watching” a hot babe, everyone else was watching me, walk into a sign post
    comedy at its best:-))))

  8. solidarityforever:
    The lawyer is conservatism, the reporter is liberalism trying to keep up, and the sign is common sense?

  9. Hate to admit it, I walked into a pole once. Was a a youngster visiting Paris, my parents walked us all over the place, I started to sulk, didn’t watch where I was going. Bang! Right into a metal steel pole. I think that was the last time I sulked in my life. My father didn’t offer a single word of sympathy, which was good. Today he would have been charged with child abuse.

  10. The next day we are diluged with headlines and media commentary; “city streets unsafe for moral and intellectual superiors – Journalist assaulted during interview – no police response – city responsible”

    The coroner felt there was no need. Seeing as the victim was a reporter, he concluded that he been brain dead long before the pole came into the picture.

  12. Are journalists our intellectual and moral superiors? Perhaps not, but they’re poles apart…
