Ditto. The local Lexington NBC affiliate, who had a great all-day Derby show, and handled the incident with great sensitivity during the broadcast, pulled up every scrap of video they had on her going down and being down for the 11:00pm news sports broadcast. I telephoned immediately, but the lines were busy (gee, ya think?) - so sent off the nastygram e-mail this morning.

100% gratuitous shock bullshit ratings crap.
