The 6 Best News Bloopers

News Readers and presenters are very professional in presenting the news. They actually present the serious stuff happening around the world to the viewers. But life can be funny in all aspects and that’s where the magic of fun changes a serious news show into funny stuff. There are several news blooper compilations all over the internet. There are even monthly compilations released by certain websites. Most of the bloopers are normal words gone wrong in front of live TV and at the wrong places. We are getting together the Best 6 news bloopers of 2015

6. Obama’s Picture on a Sexual Assault News

The news had gone in February 2015 when the news was presented over a college rape suspect. The news appeared on a Fox News affiliate channel KSWB by news reader Kathleen Bade. The picture of Obama was presented with the caption “No Charges” when the charges over the sexual assault case suspect were described. The picture had come up only for about 5 minutes but the video had gone viral soon after. The TV channel even apologized on air 2 days after the mistake took place. It even posted an apology note on the website.

5. News Reporter Pulls Out Hanger While on Live TV
It was reporter Steve Frazier who pulled out a hanger from his coat and had the co-hosts laughing over it. Most of us mix up the socks or end up with some stupid outcomes when we dress up in a hurry. But being on a news channel presenting meteorological news with a hanger hung over the coat was rather hilarious. This was on Fox 9 News and Steve Frazier is a meteorologist along with a news reporter. He was feeling uneasy while presenting a storm vision and he was feeling it a little tight, the result was a hanger that still hung the coat.

4.  Local News Anchor Knew the Reason for Amazon’s Success
This will a hilarious moment on KTVN news channel morning news where reporter Andi Guevara presented an update on the rise in the value of Amazon beyond Walmart. It was then that John Potter had responded in a rather ridiculous way. The reason according to him was because Amazon had a huge sale of sex toys and this information he had stated to have gotten from a friend who worked in Amazon. Walmart would not sell sex toys and that was the reason why the Walmart value had gone down. The co-host had just hooted off the remark and topped it up by saying that the viewers are trying to eat breakfast. John Potter later updated his Facebook account over the video going viral expressing concern over how being in a news reporter job had your bad moments gaining too much publicity. There were comments which had compared this to the scenes by Ron Burgundy in the movie Anchorman.

3. When the Reporter had to stream in on Cows Humping
Mitch English, one of the renowned reporters had a live report from a dairy farm from Ninnekah in Oklahoma. It was the Fox 25 channel’s Morning news segment and the reporter Mitch English while talking with the farm representative had a scenario of cows humping in the background. His response to the situation like one possessed by Bill Burr made the scene seem more fun than it would have without the dialog. Bill Burr is a comedian and is identified by his style of taking and Mitch was rather effective in bringing about Bill's style. This had gained a good load of attention within a few days and the video segment had gone viral. The livestock had changed a boring morning farm news into a hilarious video that had a good lot of people commenting over it.

2. News Reporter Turns Berserk After Being Attacked by Cicadas
Reporter Katya Leick was scared and lost it all following a cicada attack in the midwest. She was trying to take an intro to areas where the cicadas were making their return after 20 years. The insect sure did make a good comeback as the live news segment had gone too viral in June 2015. She was reporting for the KSNT News channel covering a story on Fort Riley. The reporter Katya Leick posted the video takes on her Facebook page the next day with the heading stating it to be a tough day at work. The insects are big enough and they usually do not bite humans actually but misunderstand humans to be trees or plants and try to feed on them. This would have been the same case would it have been any person being attacked by some big insects buzzing around your face.

  1. When a Guy Scares a reporter
This one was on live TV when a black guy simply wanted to get his face into a television broadcast. He just picked up from behind the reporter, Wendy Burch while she was presenting breaking news from Los Angeles. The guy had no intention to scare the reporter. The street and the area behind her were rather empty with only a few cars moving very far from the camera. It was then that this guy just wanted to make this entry into the screen. The cameraman also had not given any reaction to this as it was live TV and he was close behind which scared the reporter when she turned around. She had laughed for a few seconds over this shock. There had been an earlier news blooper of Wendy Burch where she had slipped and fallen down during a live TV show from a Mall in 2013 but the reporter had laughed off the scene. She is basically a good sport.
There were several other notable bloopers like the one where a reporter was asking a child who was making his first day to school about missing his mother and had apparently made the child cry. Newshosting in real-time is a tough job and even the most experienced people make grave mistakes and these go viral on the web.
