Channel 2 News - Super Serious

I've been hanging around a lot this past week and the local newscasts just repeat what little news they have.  Sometimes when we really can't take it any more, we watch channel 2 or channel 12 news, which are pretty entertaining on many levels.  I was listening the other day when the broadcaster from channel 2 interrupted the scripted story with a breaking news bulletin about a car accident that had just taken place off of Chindon, but there were "no super serious injuries" reported.  They were going to continue with updates later in the broadcast, but apparently there was nothing to report.

It's mostly fun, actually it's hilarious, any time they try to adlib. (you know that no newswriter worth hiring would write "super serious."
