Look, I used to work for a local TV news station, so I know first-hand how upper management wants to boost ratings no matter what—but the level of sensationalistic fakery in this Utah Fox affiliate's news story is a bit... too... much!
Background: A dangerous crosswalk becomes the subject of an expose for the news team, who decides to fake a near collision between a car and a teenager "live" on camera. (Look for the driver to throw the car into gear before moving into the crosswalk.) EVEN BETTER? The teen backs up, hits the curb, trips and falls—though the reporter claimed she was "so shaken up... SHE COLLAPSED."
OH, BROTHER! And? BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
