Just last week, Florida news anchor John Brown walked off the live broadcast set of Good Day Orlando instead of reporting on the youngest Jenner daughter naming her new pet bunny "Bruce." We can't say we're surprised.
Brown was "having a good Friday," so he refused to even "talk about the Kardashians."
John Brown's attitude that morning was basically the "B*tch Don't Kill My Vibe" of daytime southern television. And we can't hate on that. It's a legit sentiment. But is it something to take note of as a culture, or just one person's ire?
We don't blame him, really, but let's keep in mind that Brown is an anchor on Good Day Orlando.
We don't expect him to jet off to the front lines of the war on terror, or to a small village somewhere to film a humanitarian documentary on the effects of human trafficking. So it's a little absurd that a daytime show host would explode like that over the triviality of his day-to-day life...
“I don’t care about this family!" Brown yelled. "I’m sick of this family. It’s a non-story!”
But the plot later thickened.
After Brown posted on Facebook, "Sorry, I lost my mind a bit, although it was partially in jest! I did feel better though after I was done though," Orlando Weekly reports that Brown's co-host Amy Kaufeldt later went on 104.1's The News Junkie, "to talk about cats and how her co-host Brown planned his now viral meltdown about the Kardashians."
The most crucial element of this mystery anti-Kardashian staged viral video set-up is that it's centered around Good Day Orlando.
We can't emphasize that enough.
Whether it was staged or not, whether the Kardashians are that infuriating or not, how funny that guy was or was not-- that's all irrelevant.
The real joke, presented in the video below, is that so many people paid attention to a local TV show. In Florida.
Well done, sir. Very well done.
