News Anchor Can’t Stop Laughing At Model Falling Over

Not sure what to take away from this video – the fact that even professional news anchors cannot maintain stoic expressions, or that men will never understand how hard it is for women to have to wear insanely high heels. Just listen to these two laugh at the poor model! Don’t lie – you chuckled a bit, too.

Most Awkward Come-On In TV History

Watching this makes you cringe for this news anchor’s future in television reporting. The awkward second of silence feels like 20 seconds… It’s really that awkward to bare witness to. 

Very Embarrassing News Graphic Blooper

According to this Channel 3 news report, suspect Rodney Stanger is actually a mouse. He’s armed and dangerously adorable. The public has been warned. Oh, and props to the news anchor for not even giggling at the revelation.
