Oops! Pakistani News Anchor Caught Off Guard, Captured On Camera Showing Middle Finger
A Samaa TV news anchor, while discussing the ongoing Asia Cup, was caught off-guard minutes before gesturing the middle finger and the whole incident was streamed live.
News anchors have to keep calm and composed at all times. However, they're only human and sometimes the camera captures them in weird, funny moments.
In one such recent case, a Pakistani news anchor has been caught on camera 'showing the middle finger' also called flipping the bird, during a bulletin on the ongoing Asia Cup in UAE. The video of this has gone viral after journalist Syed Raza Mehdi shared it. Many have been criticising the act.
Talking aboue Pakistan vs Afghanistan game, a Samaa TV news anchor was all praise for the Pakistan players for their performance but he was caught off-guard moments earlier when the camera began rolling. He was seen giving someone the finger live on air before realising the bulletin had begun.
