KDFW Fox 4 Makes YouTube Pull Video of Ambush Journalist

TexasFred sent me a link today of a story about a KDFW Fox 4 Journalist who ambushed an Owner of a Salvage business as he was buying a new shotgun.

The reason he had to buy a new one was because Dallas PD took his other ones after he shot a burglar.

The reporter waited on the old Gentleman in the parking lot of an Academy Sports and Outdoors store and sprang into action when he walked out.

A couple things come to mind rather quickly.

  1. How did she know he was at the Academy? Was she following stalking the Owner?
  2. Why is it news that a business owner is buying a new shotgun when his other one was stolen?
  3. Was it really necessary to break the old man down to tears?
  4. Why the hell hasn’t Dallas PD gave this mans guns back?

Anyway, the journalist, Rebecca Aguilarhas been suspended indefinitely according to the post on TexasFred’s site. Good for them but they should fire her.

What is even more amazing is that KDFW made YouTube Pull the news clip. No one knows why, as far as I know, KDFW hasn’t given a reason. Perhaps they’re ashamed of Ms. Aguilar’s reporting? I would be also.

Don’t fret good readers, thanks to TexasFred, I have a link to the video elsewhere.
