Andy Rooney spoke his mind about newspapers on 60 Minutes recently. If you missed it, it's on YouTube here. Another Rooney on newspapers clip is here.

Toronto Sun newsroom outbursts come and go without much fanfare, but when TV cameras are rolling, all tantrums and bloopers are fodder for YouTube.
The Sun could be holding video bloopers now that reporters are doing double duty with video cameras on the streets, but none to date on YouTube that we have found.

A few YouTube favourites:
Anchor & reporter on air verbal slug fest
A Jessica Savitch NBC news classic
Bill O'Reilly going ballistic in '90s)
