Nothing helps you relax after a long, hard week in the newsroom quite like another newsroom's misfortune. The above is from a live shot KTVU-Channel 2 was doing in San Francisco's U.N. Plaza tonight after a rally by supporters of the Egyptian uprising. The reporter, Amber Lee, was just wrapping up after a tape report when a passer-by dropped trow. In the moments following this shot, her camera operator tried to move to get this full moon out of the frame. He/she couldn't quite do it.
As KTVU News likes to say, "Only on 2."
Update: My friend Pete points out in the comments that KTVU still has the video of the report online. Watch for the last five seconds or so.: http://www.ktvu.com/video/26842640/index.html
I'm laughing so hard... hilarious. I love SF. :D
