@@alfonsogreen2722 Like you, I didn’t know he had passed away. I enjoyed his consumer reports In the late 1970s and early 1980s on KNBC 4 in Los Angeles. I was back in Los Angeles by the late 1980s, and I remember having the news on that day when that happened. Although I am two years late, condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues.
Wow, he was a pro. Just acted like it was a normal thing and asked the man his name and where he was from. Made it seem like Gary was in control, and Horowitz verbally relayed useful information that could be useful to the authorities. Horowitz was a boss.
I was a teen back in 1987 when this happened. All I kept thinking watching this was "WTF is singer-songwriter Randy Newman doing holding a gun to consumer reporter David Horowitz?"
His statement claimed he had been unjustly put in a mental hospital. And to show he didn't belong there, he puts a gun to a TV news person on the air. Not too convincing.
Boy, that was an unfortunate news story! A terrifying moment on live TV, during the Channel 4 News at KNBC on August 20, 1987. Thank God consumer reporter David Horowitz was cool enough to handle the godawful situation.
This "incident" is just a little part of an horrible bigger story. Look about Gary Stollman Info and check for yourself. The man was not crazy if you put in context all the info about aliens that just had appeared through the years, all the cases of "paranoid shooters" that hear voices and all the john keel cases. This man was not crazy. He was attacked by dark forces that work with the deep state. He was living a real nightmare with the high strangeness of "street theater" and "mystery mans and womans". Look for "targeted individuals" and see the same kind of strange things going on today and ever. Check the investigations of Victor Tausk on "paranoid schizophrenia" and compare. Look for Berthold Schwarz works on ufo investigators that have been lived the same nightmare. Aliens are really working to take control of humanity, allways.
@@RustyMuck I lived in Western New York for many years, I enjoyed the heck out of John Beard: I got the impression that he was amused by the news he was reading and was having a good time (he did the morning show on WGNZ Channel 2).
You wanna talk about Gary being the slow one? It took David 10-15 seconds to realize a strange man just walked into the studio ready to replicate the scene straight from the Joker movie if David didn't read exactly what was on the card. Homie are you for real. That would have taken me 2 seconds. That man had never been mugged in his entire life up until today.

Well to be fair the police know there will be footage of how they handle this situation, and the fact that it would not be a smart idea to shoot at a suspect when there are civilians right next to the suspect. But yes very well handled imo.
*It's amazing that both Keith Morrison (DATELINE) and Fred Roggin (Roggin's Heroes and other funny video shows) worked together at the same station!!!*
Aliens are not real. That’s why. That dumb conspiracy shit is nonsense and is no excuse to pull up a gun at anyone like that. AND ON LOCAL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GREATER LOS ANGELES TELEVISION NEWSCAST!!!! HOW CRAZY COULD THAT GUY BE? EVEN IF THE GUN IS F$&KING FAKE.
That is the right Question. He was a targeted individual after "knowing too much". Paranoid schizophrenia is not an illness. Remember the picture of a ufo research man with a tinfoil hat that everyone laughed about?.. Maybe this is not a "conspiracy theory" or "ufo nuts" delusion. Maybe a handfull of "selected" ufo researchers in every generation or country have to pass this horrors in silence.
That's beyond silly. Whata wimp u are. When I was a small kid, I'd have been filled with excitement while calling my family into my bedroom to see this.
Wasn’t first time Horowitz handled a tough situation exceptionally well. Early in his KNBC career, he did local cut-ins during the “Today” show. He was in the newsroom on the morning of 9 February 1971 during the Sylmar earthquake, which killed more than 60 people. The NBC studios in Burbank were not from from the epicenter and KNBC was knocked off the air. So, Horowitz, his producers and technicians moved to a mobile production truck in the parking lot and began non-stop coverage. Tom Brokaw joined him later, but in the early hours, it was just David Horowitz, with a handful of notes, two or three editors and producers and two cameras, who dominated the local coverage.
Similar to a hostage situation on a news set some five years earlier-in 1982, a deranged gunman made his way into the studio of Channel 10 in Phoenix (then CBS affiliate KOOL-TV), leading to a standoff that lasted nearly five hours.
I remember watching this live in Newport Beach as a kid, like WTF? lol Thanks for the memories! Fight Back! (with David Horowitz) Ah, and Fred Rogan, lol...where's Fritz Coleman?? There he is! Weatherman in LA, easiest job in the world! I wanna go back!
Ikr, everybody ignoring it, and If u do your research on it even famous people exposed that some celebrities are clones and that aliens exist, but why is everybody ignoring it like wtf

Kinda wrong to not let the message get out. Odviously it’s an important message that they want to be heard if they went through all that? Why not be interested in what they have to say.. tip if someone does this now have a blue tooth and a person on the other phone line to let u know if u are on tv or not. If your not start shooting knee caps until they put u live on the air. (Shooting below the knees is not attempted murder so shoot away 😅)
6:00 is a statement and action the news literally does the opposite of these days. Its just expected now that a news station will cover the event as much as possible; and I'm not saying its what encourages mass shootings and such, but maybe if they didn't cover it like they do, it might not be as popular...
I moved to LA in Feb 1987! I remmeber all those news people! Thats when journalists did their jobs and actually broadcasted the news and not the fake news of today!
I'm amazed by the calm that David Horowitz had there.
Well, he didn't want to freak out live! Maybe that's why David was calm, during that unfortunate ordeal!
Nerves of steel is what this man has.
Usually, a gunman won't let you reach for your reading glasses.
He didn’t have a choice to panic 😂
it's amazing how calm he was
Who?
@Daphne Van Zant you people are really wrong, he realized that if he didn't obey his orders he would have been killed, thats why hes so calm
@@JPX64Channelhe wouldn't have been killed, they said it was a fake gun but he was under the impression that it was a real gun

He was gaining some time cause he knew they would've to cut it from live stream...
That guy was so professional... I can hardly believe it.
Today those guys have TH-cam and don't need to hijack KNBC.

Their reaction was so calm "excuse me?" like someone just called in the middle of the of the broadcast.
Finally, something other than the clip itself! It's been such a search to find more info about this incident.
Can u link the clip

After all these years, Fritz Coleman and Fred Roggin are still doing weather and sports on KNBC.
Both need to retire. Fritz in his 70s & Fred in his 60s...It time for them to go to shady pines...
And Jon Beard went back to Buffalo to finish off one heck of a career
Fritz Coleman has recently retired, but Fred Roggin's still there at KNBC!

David Horowitz has brass ones. No fear, no flinching
Wow how calm the news anchor was, almost as if he was trained to be so calm under stress, sort of like CIA training
The guy repeatedly saying he's got a gun to his back just added to the tension.
You know what I find most striking is the reaction of the police, and how different it is compared to today.
Right?
People that disturbed need help! Not shooting/police brutality/prison that beefs them up or further disturbs them.
M De yes well the whole “they need help” argument, while not wrong per se, doesn’t do much if they’ve actually got live ammo.
Well to be fair the police know there will be footage of how they handle this situation, and the fact that it would not be a smart idea to shoot at a suspect when there are civilians right next to the suspect. But yes very well handled imo.
Rest in peace, David Horowitz! (1937-2019)
If anyone ever reads this, Gary is alive and kicking. Can't say much more as I would break HIPPA laws but, he hasn't changed much.
Haven't seen him on TV Much since
@@ChubbyChecker182 you wouldn't want to. He mostly just wears tighty whiteys.... only lol

I remember that
Thought it was all Handled quite well. No Drama, screaming, fainting,
Cussing. Everyone Remained Calm 👍👍👍
why is no one talking about what the statement included? why was Gary willing to risk his life to get a message out to us?
people dont care about truth

I want to hear what he read! WHY!?
Woody Allen style hold-up. "Someone is standing here and would LIKE me to read..." LOL! What a gentle way of putting it! LMFAO!
Actually read the letter I think there is a world we will never know
Could you tell me where i find it?
Parents, think it through before allowing your child to have their own TV in their room. I saw this live and got pretty scared.
That's beyond silly. Whata wimp u are. When I was a small kid, I'd have been filled with excitement while calling my family into my bedroom to see this.
Hmmmm. Did anyone paused it and read the letter. Wonder how much truth there is to this.😮
RIP. David Horowitz! I wasn't in LA during that incident. IIRC, I was on vacation? That news' intro gave me flashbacks!
RIP David Horowitz.
Can we just appreciate how calm david remained.
Holy cow, This was crazy.
Man, David Horowitz was a brave guy.
Thanks for posting this!
Does anyone have the footage as it originally aired?
Where is the rest of his statement???
We’re not allowed to read it in it’s entirety. We might start to develop opinions deemed “problematic”.
I wanna know the what the statement said. Especially about the aliens.
grew up watching this people in L.A...how different news were back then.
do you guys know what they did to people in mental hospitals in those years? Yeah no excuse what he did but he’s probs been abused for years.
He wrote of "chemtrails"
Then as now I am in the Los Angeles area. I remember watching that when it was going on. They absolutely reacted the way they should have.
Where’s the full note? I want to read that
I’m here in 2021 watching this after the cia conformed aliens are real.
That is the key point. Was he so "nuts"?...
Was too distracted by the hot chick to notice the aliens
David Horowitz handled that situation like a freakin legend.

David acted like as if it wasn't the first time he got pointed by a gun, I guess David doesn't know what being scared is.
Wtf how is he so damn calm he acts like it's a normal broadcast
Calm as hell
Whatever happened to Gary Stollman? I’ve checked online and haven’t been able to find anything.

damn i remember this from 1987...just wow!!
What did he say?

why is nobodu talking about the statement itself? This guy might have an important messege
it was about his father being a clone and not his biological father
He's a nut.
Ikr, everybody ignoring it, and If u do your research on it even famous people exposed that some celebrities are clones and that aliens exist, but why is everybody ignoring it like wtf
faith spam and that aliens exist and they helped them
Den 18- that’s what I’m saying everyone talking about the damn fake gun except the statement. I honestly think his statement is real
just saw David on the Tonight Show... tonight
That's one cool son of a bitch for having a gun in his back

This man was trying to warn us.
I think he actually was. As crazy as it all seems.
Oh wow, that's Keith Morrison!
This was stupid, especially almost 30 years later.

I was watching this broadcast with my sister when this happened. At first, we thought it was a part of the broadcast because we didn't see the gun.
