NEWS BLOOPERS
Hilarious Moments In Broadcast News...
Retail Price: $9.99
Deal Price: $2.99
The straight faced seriousness of news reporters is a facade
that occasionally slips live on air, often with hilarious
results. This collection gathers together some of those
moments, offering a series of clips where things haven't quite
gone according to plan. Mishaps range from on-air bloopers,
cameras going astray, non-stop giggling at inappropriate times,
bizarre tongue-tied newscasters, and a whole lot more.
