Sorry about that.

Sorry about that.
I can't for the life of me remember which one it was on. I've seen a bunch of them. I still think it may have been on one of the segments of the 'Death Scenes' series.
I think we decided it wasn't on that version of FAD. We think it may have been deleted from all of the American real death series. We were checking out some foriegn angles. Have at it though...we could have missed something.Originally Posted by imadeathhag
OK guys.... I've been on FAD too long. In my above post I meant to say FOD (Faces of Death) and I put FAD. I've cracked!!! LMAO!!!

Things have changed so much, and I've been around since water. When I was a sportscaster, you could almost count the players as buddies because they trusted everyone and weren't afraid to chat with anyone," says Andrea Kirby, a sportscaster-turned-media coach. There weren't so many media and (the players) seemed to know what to expect. They were much more open, but there wasn't any reason not to be."
Kirby began working with sports teams in 1985 and works now with ESPN's jocks-turned-journalists. She says there's never been a strong understanding among the athletes of what the media's job is. The players also "are protected, to their detriment," by coaches and management, she says, fostering hostility to inquiries from the outside.
"They didn't understand the media's intent. Most of them assumed you only wanted controversy and nothing else," Kirby says. "And that if there was one bad guy in the media, they were all bad."
And yet the path to the world outside the game runs right through those bad old reporters. Learning to spar with them, to feed them a story, is a talent in its own right.
"You can take all of these skills out into the world. If you don't have them, you're not going to get hired for anything productive when you can't play the game anymore," Kirby says.
Anyone think this is the same Andrea Kirby that was C C's best friend at the station?
I told my lawyer he's better step it up or we would both end up on an episode of "SNAPPED"
Where...where....I didn't see her??!!!!!!!
Could be....do you know her or something? We need details.....
Mike.... probably saw how this thread derailed earlier and got scared off. A certain somebody was talking about lawsuits and the like, and that was probably enough.

No, I dont know anyone that knew CC. Im just checking out the other people she knew from the Quin story. Maybe since they are interviewed in the article they wouldnt mind talking to us?????? They all worked at the station back then and may have been there that day.Could be....do you know her or something? We need details.....

I don't actually watch that type of movies anymore. I use to though and luckily I never saw anything with children. I always fast forwarded through the animal stuff too. I don't have the stomach for that type of stuff anymore. I'm pushing 40 I've seen all of that stuff I need to.
I not sure if you noticed but if you watch the 2 youtube clips you will see the bloody suicide note and the black and white pic of someone standing at the news desk looking down. But thats all that is shown really. I wasn't clear on whether you are saying you still haven't seen it or you had not seen it up until now.I haven't seen any of the documentaries made about her. I can't remember where I read it but somebody said something to the effect of some brief flashes of pictures of her bloody suicide note, and the anchor desk where she landed after the shot. I haven't seen any of them anywhere. Welcome to the thread!!!! Looking forward to any insight that you can add.

Cant find anything new on George Peter Ryan....the guy she had a crush on before she found out that Andrea Kirby was dating him

This place is selling CC t-shirts. A little overpriced IMO:

I read the entire article posted by baroque1. I've read it before but.... did anybody think it was odd that she told her Mom to leave the dog out, because she would be back at 10:45? Maybe, she had considered doing it, and when the shootout footage wouldn't roll it sent her over the edge? It said in the article she normally got pissed when that type of thing happened. That really makes me wonder.....she was unstable and sometimes the smallest thing will set a person like that off. At least she didn't shoot somebody else.
It never hurts to try.
Sick bastards !!! Trying to make money off the dead lady. See we aren't that bad. We don't want to make anything off of her. It just goes to show though that people remember her.
I'll be back on tomorrow night guys hope to see everybody here.
Good night Dexter!
I did several intense searches tonight and her name popped up on several foreign sites. By searching "Christine Chubbuck" VHS DEATH in google I pulled up some pretty obscure hits...mostly forum chatter. There is one odd Korean site that I tried to open, but couldn't...anybody see that one? The footage is probably on something more bootleg or obscure than a Japanese issue (unless it's a black-market bootleg type thing). It was probably put on some odd Death tape in Korea, India, Pakistan or Turkey...IF it does in fact exist on a foreign compilation.
Sallie Quinn must be reached...she's seen it and knows stuff...
Who was her guest that night?
Why all the hostility? Sheesh.
I read somewhere that Christine baked George Peter Ryan a cake or something (she was actually planning to work him slowly)...she even mentioned this to her friend Andrea Kirby over dinner.
Little did Christine know that Andrea was "pushin' the tush" into George Peter during after hours...
...Sure this played with CC's mind...sure this played a major part in her "decision" to exit with "blood and guts."

Zazzle shirts may be a little high, but the quality is amazing. My sons make shirts frequently, and they are better than what you can get in stores.
Back OT: She had a lovely voice. I believe she could've been a success. WHat is with the tragic newswomen?
Hi guys -- just a quick update so ya all don't think I disappeared. My mother's got a medical emergency in NJ (I'm in NC) and needs surgery -- so family things have been a bit dicey the last couple of days.
As far as the search for the "grail" -- I'm giving my contact until the end of the week and if I don't hear from her -- I'll drop her a line and see where we are in the hunt.
As far as the posts since I was last on -- I'm not concerned about lawsuits, but Scott's site is always a consideration. He does such a fantastic job with FAD and I certainly don't want any problems for him. However, handled properly, I don't see how he or the site would be impacted so long as nothing "illegal" is posted here.
Anyway, sincerely wish I had more to share at this point, but I don't.It's a waiting game for us all ....
P.S. I am very much a "she" -- not a "he".

Thanks for checking in, Ali. Best of luck with your mom.
I am wondering if it's going to be worth it in the end.. You know what I mean. I hope we're not all putting a shit load of hype into it and it's not going to be worth it.
That might sound really mean/weird, I don't know if I make sense at all.
well for me it be worth it....no matter what .....Im really down..I hope we can find it funny how a telivised death can makes ones day! Lol!!! Well we will wait and see I suppose ....
Wow !!! It looks like you guys have been busy....
Mike.....are you really gonna buy one of those shirts?
Seagorath... great job and I truly believe that it was/is on a bootlegged tape.
alicat.... thanks for the update. Sorry your Mom has a medical emergency. Hope she gets feeling better soon. Don't worry about the lawsuit angle. We're all too smart to cause any problems for anybody.
Michelle... I think the big thrill is finding it more than anything. It isn't gory at all,and happens so fast if you blink your eye you miss it. LOL!!!
Everybody keep up the good work!!! I've noticed everybody on this thread has had something to add. Hopefully, the goal which we hope to achive can be reached.
Just wanted to give you all my support I read this post religiously. You are all fantastic at searching out obsure websites. I would like to contribute, but alas I have nothing to add. I thought I was a smartie and looked up CC bittorrent hoping someone was floating cc's suicide out there. I actually got three hits and about had a heart attack.
When I downloaded them they were all bogus
I hate when people post fake BT's
anyway. Good Luck, I'll keep looking out.
Thanks stay-zee
Renowned Death Hag
Wasn't most of the footage on Faces of Death fake though?
Theres a site called Demonoid that my b/f uses for all his downloads, only problem is you have to be invited to be a member of it to look and download stuff. He's in bed now and I dont know his log in details for it. If anyone else is a member of there maybe they could take a look.
I keep reading and hoping! It is worth it to me to see it because this was a major, major event in terms of being one of the first public suicides - especially in this manner.
Never heard of it. Maybe, you can check it out/
She certainly made her mark in history.
Try here:

I'm a member of Demonoid. What are you guys looking for? I can check it out.Never heard of it. Maybe, you can check it out/
Every time I pass a video store, i have to check out the Gorn section to see if there might be a tape. Everyone is doing such and amazing job on the internet, i figured I'd try the libraries and video stores to see if my chance there is an article, photo or an old foreign copy of Traces/faces of Death...
We have some pretty cool of the wall video stores here!
Here's a site that might be of interest... Killing for Culture. It's a foreign real death movie site. It lists a bunch of them and I think it's worth taking a look at. Does anybody know how to translate any of it?
Any real death tape that has the actual footage. If you can look up 'Death Scenes' and 'The Many Taboos of Death" for starters.
I'm on it!
Awesome Anna!!! You may come across it somewhere. Keep your eyes peeled.
Cool !!!
Somebody out there has something juicy; the tape, the autopsy results, the actual gun, the VW Beetle...Hell, I'd take anything at this point.
Did not find anything on Demonoid, but I did find "Traces of Death" on another torrent site, so I'll download and check it out.
I'm out for the night guys. I got a sick kitten and I think it's going to die. I'll be back on tomorrow sometime after 2:00. Keep up the great work !!!!!
Oh no, poor little thing! I hope he/she makes it.
Poor kitten, I watched a 2 pt. "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" doc about Christine Chubbuck when I googled her name. It was very interesting. It included some stuff about the movie The Network (which I never saw).
It was touching to hear people talk about her and how much a lovely person she was. And to hear the man say he was sitting at the desk cleaning up her blood when he realized he was crying.. how heartwreching that must of been.
According to a website I encountered, there is a short clip in "Bowling for Columbine." Anyone know this for sure?
