And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living color, you're about to see another first - an attempted suicide. Shot herself during broadcast. ~~ Chris Chubbuck, newscaster, d. July 15, 1974 http://www.corsinet.com/braincandy/dying3.html Aug 13 06, 8:34 PM

In 1970, a newscaster named Chris Hubbock shot herself during broadcast right after she finished rattling off, "And now, in keeping with Channel 40's policy of always bringing you the latest in blood and guts, in living colour, you're about to see another first -- an attempted suicide." http://www.thedailystar.net/2003/09/12/d30912020327.htm Aug 13 06, 8:36 PM

It looks like Hubbock wins as far as Google hits are concerned. Maybe she shot herself because nobody could spell her name right. Aug 14 06, 1:25 AM
