Description

This is the funniest story Ive heard in a long time, I cant believe this actually happened. Over the weekend, the BBC accidentally mistook a cab driver for tech savvy IT Expert Guy Kewney. The cabbie was waiting in the lobby for a fare when he was swooshed on set, micd up and before he knew it answering questions about the Apple Vs Apple Legal battle. Watch as he gives a face of shock then does his best to go along with it all, hilarious!

Man, the expression on his face is fucking GOLD!

They must have some real fucking idiots working at that station. But it was funny to watch him keep going along with it, even though he didn't seem to exactly be an expert on the subject.

I was suprised to have this verdict come on ME....because I was not expecting that.
I like how it goes from "Uhh, oh God NO!" to "Ooooooooooookay...." to "Yeah, yeah, that's me."

Good thing he just eased on and faked his way through, though you'd think the anchor would have realized something was up when he was answering her questions in the most ambiguous ways possible.

Lukage May 16, 2006 03:56 AM

Actually he was at the BBC for a job interview. Not a Cabbie.

The true identity of a man who was mistakenly interviewed on BBC News 24 has been revealed.

Guy Goma, a graduate from the Congo, appeared on the news channel in place of an IT expert after a mix-up.

But Mr Goma, who was wrongly identified in the press as a taxi driver, was really at the BBC for a job interview.
THE PLOT THICKENS!

Seems that our homegrown esteemed media empire is remarkably adept at totally fucking up every now and then.

The producer asked for Guy Kewney, editor of Newswireless.net, who was due to be interviewed about the Apple vs Apple court case.

After being pointed in Mr Goma's direction by a receptionist, the producer - who had seen a photo of the real expert - checked: "Are you Guy Kewney?"
Here's what may have caused the misunderstanding. The fact that both men were named "Guy".

But the producer claimed to have seen a photo of the man he's looking for. This is what Guy Kewney looks like.

If you check the real Kewney's rant about the mix-up, you can see that he's a bit of a racist dick.

"black black black pink pink pink ignoramous black black RAWR RAWR ARHHH!!!"

I wonder if he still got hired for that job.

Man, no kidding. What a whiney bitch he's being about it too.

"I didn't get to be on TV!"

Big fucking whoop! I don't see how this guy would be considered any kind of professional in the first place.

Krelian May 16, 2006 11:55 AM

I'm sure he knows more about how to use KaZaAaAa than you could possibly imagine. He's a professional, you see.

Rockgamer May 17, 2006 12:45 PM

I justy saw this story on the news, and they showed a clip where the BBC had interviewed Guy Goma asking about his reaction to the whole situation. Does anyone know if the whole thing is available online somewhere?

shining_force May 17, 2006 05:33 PM

I saw this too...hilarious

Shenlon May 17, 2006 07:19 PM

the real "Guy" wanted his 15 seconds of fame? GTFO ^_^
His opening expression was great. It just prooves that an interview like that can go smoothly if you have a deep accent and repeat a words from the question.

Josiah May 18, 2006 04:50 PM

Aside from the expression on his face at the beginning, I think he held his own pretty well. If he got the job he was there for to begin with, because of how he did on the set then hey, I'd say that was his lucky day, in a strange sort of way.

Here are the BBC people making a fool of themselves. I think Guy Kewney still sounded a little pissed off, lol. Guy Goma took his TV moment to do some sucking up. It would be a poor show if the guy didn't get his job....

Locke May 28, 2006 06:41 AM

I like the imposter better then the real guy... Let's lynch the original :D

I betcha that he's a neo-nazi too, sure as fuck sounds like one in that blog. Damned sub-humans.

JazzFlight May 28, 2006 11:12 AM

Well, the only thing is he could barely speak English (even in the additional interview), so whatever job he's coming for, it'd better not rely on communication (or they should have someone who speaks French working with him).
