Live TV Fails so Awkward; You’ll Feel Secondhand Embarrassment for These Reporters
Pantsed at Coal Rally
The mood was serious when a reporter covered a Sierra Club anti-coal rally in Union Square in 2012. But seconds later, that changed when someone in the crowd sprinted up and yanked the reporter’s pants down mid‑broadcast. Suddenly, he took center stage, especially with boxers that strangely matched the prankster’s shirt.
People on several sites got in on the fun, dubbing it a fake live street broadcast from a fictional KOHA and marveling at how the anchor’s pants came down so easily. The flawless blend of activism, comedy, and wardrobe malfunction proved that even live protest coverage might come with surprises.
