It’s a scene that shocked the world just a month ago. A Los Angeles-based reporter was stricken by a medical issue on live TV, leading to random gibberish and a flood of concern. Now, it’s happened again, this time to a reporter in Canada on Monday:
The reporter is Mark McAllister who works for the network Global Toronto. McAllister acknowledged the incident via Twitter and said he will be seeing doctors:
The news station released a statement about the scary moment, saying it immediately called paramedics:
While on the air during the 6:00 PM News Hour broadcast on Monday, March 21, Global Toronto reporter Mark McAllister suffered a minor medical issue causing him to experience a moment of disorientation. Paramedics were immediately called to the scene, where Mark was fully checked out and is feeling better. As a precaution, Mark will be pursuing this matter with his own doctor.
Mark would like to thank all Global Toronto viewers who have expressed concern for his well-being.
In February, CBS 2′s Serene Branson suffered through a similar incident during a live report on the Grammy Awards. It was determined she suffered a massive migraine:

Posted on March 23, 2011 at 10:00amFrom the way people look at me whenever I open my mouth, I’d guess this is what I sound like every day!!! And, then, the other day, I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to tie my necktie (something I’ve been doing for more than a few years)! Maybe it‘s the lopsided wobble of Earth’s rotation after slinging Japan a few feet into the Sea of Japan??? Gosh, I hope this fellow is okay! And, if I continue to have issues, maybe I’ll stop by the funeral home, just to be sure there won’t be any surprises after Obamacare gets through with me! (Did you know that a part-time, W-2 earner cannot deduct the cost of his health insurance, but a 1099 earner can? Trouble is, if ‘the boss’ tells you when to report to work, provides you equipment or tools and tells you what to do, you‘re a ’statutory employee’ (i.e. W-2 earner)!!! If I were a full time employee, my employer would provide health insurance! By the way, I had three w-2 employers, including the U.S. Census last year and did NOT draw unemployment! I am grossly UNDERemployed–I’m a BSEE+MBA truck driver! Anybody else out there think we need to throw out BOTH Obamacare and the Tax Code and start over !!! It is a SERIOUS MESS in Washington D.C.!)

I ran into this weird interview of this lady who claims she part of the Illuminati and was programmed by them. Explaining that for reasons unknown, times were programmed into her and she would have to drive with her husband and kids to some military base to learn and teach necessary programming skills. Then would wake up feeling extremely tired the next day and not remember the night before. Which is the odd part to me, I would like to ask her how she then remembers all this…lol I guess this interviewer really believes it all.. not me .. http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/illuminati/svali1_01.htm

I believe that these people are simply so exhausted that they are falling asleep on the air and going into a dream state. They feel it happening, but they can’t stop talking when they are too tired.
It happened on the radio with Ian Punnit one night on Coast to Coast several months back on a promotional segment with host George Noory. They thought he was having a stroke, but he simply couldn’t remember what happened! He was perfectly fine.

Posted on March 23, 2011 at 10:31pmThe two incidents seem similar to the untrained ear, but the linguist knows…
Report Post »Ms. Branson couldn’t put English morphemes together properly to make words of them, although she was keeping to POSSIBLE phonetic combinations.
Mr. McAllister was spitting out fully formed English words, but couldn’t put them into a sense-making syntax.
This is because of the different areas of their brain that were affected by whatever medical problem it was (not sure about these cases, but the linguistic phenomena are well documented in patients with aphasia of one kind or another.)

Posted on March 24, 2011 at 10:23pmForget the migraine excuse. This is looking more and more like mind control if ever I saw it. They just had a report on this not too long ago on television news, which I couldn’t believe was actually on mainstream media. Can’t remember if it was Fox News or not, but definitely talked about mind controlling the politicians. I have researched this for years. It is without a doubt true. All the movies you see on this subject, are absolutely true.
Research the Sounds of Silence technology. You will understand exactly how it is done.
Better yet, look at the lyrics of Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Sounds of Silence.” All too true folks. All too true.
