What cracks me up is here is a reporter supposedly being paid well and he gets busted driving a Early 90’s White BMW hoopdie. Now thats funny, in a pathetic sort of way….

You had me at the headline! I almost feel bad for Jerry, because if it were you or I who went on a Drunken Brookside Automobile Pinball Rampage, it would be a slight footnote in the newscast (if even that). We’d pay our fine or do our time (or whatever has to be done) and go on with our lives mortified that we’d allowed ourselves to get so out of control. However, in addition to whatever dependency issues he has, his career in Tulsa is now pretty much ruined, and he’ll have to start all over somewhere else. With a beat-up 16 year-old BMW. And his closet of little elfin suits.
This is the price of celebrity, one that I am thankful I don’t have to pay.
i think it’s funny that he literally crapped himself when he got arrested…
With that great mugshot, give Jerry the SKATE! Sure, his DL should get the revoke. For the h-n-r, the judge should sentence him to community service, bicycle driving for LIFE. I say KTUL should keep him to do the gratuitous piece on heavy drinking, during sweeps. Hey, the heavy smoking piece worked great for Bill Mitchell.
Hey, Channel 8, keep Jerry!
Having worked with his pain-in-the-ass offspring, I relished in this bit of welcome news. I wonder if he’ll give Tulsans the forecast on his civil court case. Ba-dump-tish!
I see his business is not being blased all on oscn.net. That site has cases as far back as 1985 but Jerry is not on there. This is Tulsa, he will get a slap on the wrist, a rehab offer, a deferred sentence and then appear on another station. Some lesson he will learn?
Btrownsugar: I think his court date is Friday. He should be on oscn.net after then.
Bob Howard, Don Woods, and Glenda Silvey wouldn’t be caught dead, driving drunk down Brookside…….. Or Gusty either for that matter.
As a ribbon wearing club veteran, I can assure you he had it coming! My friends and I used to see him out on a regular basis with “the boys” getting rather loaded and doing things that are only acceptable in San Fran or maybe the Episcopal Church. Ever noticed how he looks really hung over on the news sometimes?? It’s NOT because he has been out chasing the story of the year… Not that any of it is my business but I do find it rather comical. Good riddance I say. ‘Bout time they nailed him (pun intended).
whoa.. didn’t see that one coming…
His business is now on oscn.net. I still say he will get a slap on the wrist. I think he will relocate to another city and leave all this crap behind (pun intended)
