Laguna Honda Hospital flack gets 'handsy with KGO-TV reporter Dan Noyes, (camerawoman too)

Just got off the phone with ABC7/KGO's Dan Noyes, who, while doing a story on alleged Laguna Honda Hospital financial irregularities, was the recipient of some bizarre, hands-on, behavior by one of LH's chief brass.

I asked Noyes point blank about the whole escapade:

"In over thirty years of being in the biz, I have never encountered this type of behavior--never, " said an obviously annoyed Noyes.

Let's be clear here: Noyes is a bulldog reporter.. An in-your-face, relentless pursuer of the facts and won't take any bull---- and frankly, this town could use a few more like him. Be that as it may, even Noyes shouldn't have to be subject to some lame hosp. guy, (I don't want to mention the guys name) touching him over 41x. (I counted at least 30, but I hear through the grapevine it was actually over 40.)

I know this is San Francisco, but ...

Just when you think you've seen enough on the video, the weird hospital director goes full-throttle touchey at Noyes KGO camerawoman, who can be heard telling the guy to go away.

Uh, yeah, weird.

I mean, hell, even Mike Wallace wouldn't put up with that kind of crap.

  1. "I know this is San Francisco but..."--oh I get it, because SF has large gay population.


    Noyes is a prick and would get all confrontational on someone only if there was a camera there to capture it.

  2. The "I know this is SF" line has ZERO to do with any sexual innuendo. It was a reference to some of the more colorful events/incidents that has taken place in our celebrated city.

    Please.

    Its a real damn stretch for you, "anonymous" to go there.
