TMZ has obtained the 911 call when the Universal backlot caught fire, and the dispatcher has a little trouble wrapping her head around the fact that there's such a thing as New York Street in So. Cal.

16. Ira Nic - you stole my line, but good job. TMZ tries to make a big deal out of nothing alot of the time, then they turn right around and look even stupider by misspelling something.

17. I am a dispatcher for a 911 center and she did nothing wrong at all. As for the repeating of the area, it might not have been entering correctly so she had to keep verifying the information. I have had to do that myself.

18. # 18...Is stupider even a word? Amazing how you criticize, but can't spell yourself. We get it they messed up, you don't need to run it into the ground. And I know TMz this and that...but we are all here looking at their website for some reason.
Peace

20. TMZ, you have a problem. The dispatcher was just asking questions. She never sounded confused. Your confused.

21. As a fire dispatcher for the past 14 years, I didn't hear any wrong doing in the dispatcher's voice. It is the job of a dispatcher to remain calm.

23. As usual, much ado about nothing. You know, you're the dis-owned stepchild of celebrity journalism for a reason. You might want to look into it.

24. I'll be glad when "wrapping her head around" joins such phrases as "she's pretty...NOT" and "he's such an icon" in oblivion. It became "so last year" immediately after it first appeared.

27.
It's only on a movie set that the public can just say a location and "911" just sends somebody --- the public again overestimates their system ---- "the media" feeds on both of us. She did the best she could do with what she had to work with!

28. NUMBER 28: "WETBACKS" IS A RACIST STATEMENT, B*TCH!

29. Why is this a story? Sounded pretty standard to me . . . boo TMZ for not finding more interesting things to put up.

30. This woman was calm and asked all the right questions to make sure her information was correct before passing it on.

Something TMZ seldom does.
