    I swear to God, the media should be tarred and feathered in public.

    Why does every vaper on TV news have to be a complete d-bag?

    Same thing happens when they interview our troops in a war zone. Just once, I want to see an interview with a soldier who says "we're kicking ...!" It'll never happen....but one can dream.

    The doctor looks like a model.

    The whole piece looks like a put on. Fox News - fake news organization, Laura Ingraham - professional troll, and Tommy Smokes. wow

    Somebody thought this would be a good idea. I be looking up the complete segment when I get home.

    I saw it and it was painful until I realized he was doing a bit. That could not have been serious.
    But it was on a major cable TV news station. No heads up that it was comedy bit. I'm sure that the majority of viewers believed it was real.

    It's wasted as a comedy. They could have gotten Giorgio Tsoukalos (the ancient alien meme guy) as a doctor and Ethan Klein (vape naysh, see signature) as vape bro, then there could have been a spark.
    Maybe I should apply to fox as a director :w00t:

    I couldn't watch it all. Who is this guy? :nah::nah: Cough, Cough.
    I gave it a chance. I watched about 15-20 seconds after his Youtube clip. I have never heard of him, and I know now that I will not view any of his clips, or read his blog.

    If I had watched the whole thing, I would've realized too that it was a bit, but I would've been more disgusted than I am now..

    I'm fairly certain it was an attempt at a comedy bit, too. The problem is, if so many immature, weirdo vapers weren't the voice of the community in all other news pieces, then this parody wouldn't have happened. This guy was just imitating every vaper the public has seen on news pieces to date.

    I laughed all the way thru, thought he was freakin hilarious. C'mon guys - as soon as he started talking, and said "There's nothing cooler than blowing a fat cloud like that," and "it's really good for gettin' chicks" you didn't really think this was serious?

    But, it's really sad, too. There will be a significant part of the viewership that'll believe both sides. Disappointing that Fox, who (whether you agree with their viewpoint or not), at least usually challenges guests, did this. Presented comedy on one side, and let her say all those things that most people don't even realize are laughable. Those same people will believe he was real. Bad idea, and I don't know what they were thinking.
