SFist: Hillary Coughs Up a Lung on KTVU

February 5, 2008

Hillary Coughs Up a Lung on KTVU

Just as Ross informed the candidate that they had 20 seconds left and he offered his final question about Bill's role in Hillary's campaign, the senator broke out in a coughing fit and was unable to answer the question.

~~Interesting~~ Unfortunate timing.

Did you see Sal Castaneda's response? He had another reporter ask him when he was going to get married and proceeded to cough up a lung. Priceless.

Damn, wish I'd seen that. Sal Castaneda is hilarious and the only reason I turn the tv on in the mornings.

[3] | 02/05/08 09:02AM

I saw it all too!

I don't normally watch TV news, so I wasn't aware Castaneda is a jokester. I thought that was mean of him, even though I'm voting for Obama.

I think it may have been more a commentary on him personally (he isn't married...hint hint). That is why it was so funny.

[5] | 02/05/08 09:20AM

Ah, ok, well I meant to say the whole thing was hilarious regardless!

I just feel sorry for people easily. Especially since I hope she loses.

[6] | 02/05/08 09:22AM

I feel a little sympathetic to Hillary for that. But if she does it again, I'm totally calling SHENANIGANS!

she was probably up all night smoking the sticky icky with bill, partying with The Mayor.

i went down to the Ferry Building last night to try and get a snapper of those dudes. i camped out behind the motorcade and when the secret service opened up one of the Suburbans, it has like 4 large California Pizza Kitchen boxes in the back.

Sal is the Hamburglar, especially when he wears his glasses.

Here's the whole Clinton interview if anyone's interested:

"Sal Castaneda is hilarious and the only reason I turn the tv on in the mornings."

I find that incredibly depressing. *shudder*

[11] | 02/05/08 10:40AM

Sal Castaneda is the balls.

[12] | 02/05/08 11:04AM

I tried the link, merlonius...It justs lets me see and hear Ross for a moment, the goes dead.
Maybe the station supports, Hillary?

I have an abundance of audacity to hope!

[13] | 02/05/08 11:20AM

The others are bitter about his popularity too.

The other day Ross McGowan said "oh yeah, it's really fun riding on the float in the [Chinese New Year] parade . . . everyone yelling 'WE LOVE YOU SAL'".

[14] | 02/05/08 11:22AM

The link didn't work for me either -- it kept going back to the ad with nasally Glenn Hartzeim telling us to check out his newfangled website.

The interview footage is posted on Breitbart.tv though.

Wow.

Drudge has the video:

Oh God.

Obama's staff infected her with incurable TB.

[17] | 02/05/08 11:33AM

Everytime I see "Ross McGowan" I think "Rose McGowan." I'd definitely watch KTVU more often if that was the case.

[18] | 02/05/08 11:54AM

That's funny, because I think of him as "Raw Smigowan"

[19] | 02/05/08 12:32PM

i'm glad that ross mcgowan got to interview a potential presidential candidate. i remember seeing him interview both carmen electra and mc hammer within the same broadcast one day. it just seemed so... embarrassing.

[20] | 02/05/08 12:51PM

Sorry to disappoint you, elegantballons, but Ross also interviewed Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey this morning. Questions included ones such as, "Is there anything that annoys you about the other?" Apparently, Kate is annoyed by Matthew's weird animal noises. No joke.

[21] | 02/05/08 01:31PM

ross is the balls

Katerose: is there another reason to turn on the tv? It's not like it provides me any decent news coverage, and I don't drive so I don't need the incessent updates on the "macarthur maze."

As I've watched Castaneda in the mornings, it's clear he holds his castmates and his job in utter contempt. One of these days, he's going to pull out a gun and go postal on them all, and when he does, I want to see it.

I hope he spares congenial weatherman Steve Paulson. Or at least gives him a 10 second head-start...

[25] | 02/05/08 02:40PM

Sal has anchor-desk envy. Obviously.

[26] | 02/05/08 04:44PM

And seriously does Sal ever sleep? You see him on at 500a for traffic in the morning, noon news reports then live shots for 600p and 1000p news. I'm beginning to think he is a vampire.
