Fox news anchor tricked into licking iPad on air [video]

mobile

Look, we like the iPad just as much as the next person, but that doesn’t mean we’re going to go around licking it – in public, anyway. Raoul Martinez, a local Fox news anchor in San Diego, pulled off one of the funnier April Fool’s Day stunts we saw this year. Using an iPad app from Shock Top — the popular beer — Martinez managed to trick his co-anchor Shally Zomorodi into licking her iPad. Shock Top’s application promises that you can “smell” or “taste” the “satisfying flavor and aroma of Shock Top, a Belgian style wheat ale brewed with citrus peels and coriander spice.” Zomorodi fell for the prank — on air. Hit the jump for the video. Oh, and Shally, if you’re reading this, do the snozberries taste like snozberries?

      • Cer

      • Cer

        Apparently not.

      • VZguest

    And here we have the average intelligence of an Apple user.

      or someone who works for Fox News

        Or the intelligence of someone who fails to recognize the difference between a Fox News anchor and a news anchor who works at a Fox cable network affiliate station.

        or one who fails to recognize the difference between network and cable

        Name an intelligent news source, please. Can’t say I’ve ever found any that weren’t completely biased in their own way. ^_^

      • anDROIDfan

        Sorry Killa, I’m going to have to go with booyahh on this one.

      • Cer

        News show on Fox affiliate =/= Fox News.

      And yet she is still smarter than the Android user holding the camera.

        Was that an Apple users attempt at an insult? WINNING is definitely not your thing – stick with the night job.

    I mean. We are talking about Fox news. Not the most intelligent source of …well…. anything really.

  • Big Papi

    Good stuff

  • QNX Please

    Well at least she didn’t fake it and claim she could smell or taste something, I wouldn’t put it past Fox news to do this.

    • KCRic

      Or an Apple user to excuse their mindless lack of independent thinking

    Okay, so she’s not that bright… But with cleavage like hers, does she really need to be? hahaha

    I played this youtube video at my wedding yesterday as my wife walked down the aisle.

  • Dario69

    Fox affiliate = Fox news. Okay, sorry I mean Fox Local News. Still the same thing at the end of the day local or national but the intelligence of their viewership is probably higher than the other.

    • Jroc869

      not the same. msnbc isnt the same as local nbc. just like if there was news on tbs it wouldnt be the same as cnn(ted turner owns both stations). just cus fox news and news on fox sound similar doesn’t make it the same.

  • ZEFFF

    This isn’t Fox News. It the local news on the broadcast network FOX. Their is no “opinion” based news at the local level so anyone claiming that even someone who watches their local news on FOX is somehow a moron needs to look in the mirror.

    Obviously, titling this Fox News gets the clicks a flowing so I completely get my it’s titled as such.

      *why (dammit!)

    BGR writers not only lick their “pads” but, they do it so much and with such friction that the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is 20 million times above the maximum normal daily limit. Good thing that Gorilla Glass truly holds up.

    *Dumb chick licks iPad*
    *app makes laughing noise and screen displays “April Fools”*
    *Dumb chick says “Is this a joke?”*

    No, genius, you’re just not holding it right.

    Darwin, you were so wrong.

    The San Diego anchors are so much better than NYC’s FOX anchors (i.e. Rosanna Scotto & Greg Kelly)!!!
