Live TV Fails so Awkward; You’ll Feel Secondhand Embarrassment for These Reporters
Bruce’s Naming Sparks a Reaction
On August 7, 2015, John Brown, co-anchor of “Good Day Orlando,” made headlines when he walked off set during a live broadcast. The trigger? A segment about Kylie Jenner naming her new pet rabbit “Bruce.” Frustrated with what he deemed frivolous coverage, John declared that he was having a good Friday and refused to discuss the Kardashians.

John later clarified that his outburst was partly in jest, even though it highlighted the tension between celebrity coverage and serious journalism.
