Heroics at 11
If I really did have some Viewfinder BLUES virtual t-shirts, I'd send a whole box of them to fellow FOX affiliate photog Bobby Hughes for keeping his cool at a recent news scene. It happened in the wee hours of Friday when the Saint Louis news shooter happened upon a burning car, an unconscious driver and a few dazed onlookers. Not waiting for someone to call 'ACTION!',the veteran lensman bolted forth and helped drag driver Corey Abernathy 20 feet to safety. True to his DNA, Hughes rolled the whole time, proving you can shoulder a TV news camera and some responsibility at the same time. Check out the footage, currently bouncing around the internets. It speaks well of the KTVI shooter, who above all remained calm when the real-world calamity began spilling off-screen. Bravo!

T-Shirts? Should you get some let me know, cause I want one!
if he were dragging me out of a burning car i'd say, "DUDE could you please set down the camera and use BOTH your hands to save me from the fiery wreckage...thanks much"
If he only needs the one hand, so be it. I bet if he'd needed both hands, he'd have used 'em.
I'll wear yours if you'll wear mine.
