Video Collection of Live Reporting Mishaps

Journalists are always at the forefront of any stories, making them a common target of vicious attacks and harassments.

This video is a collection of unusual events which happened to journalists while they were conducting their reports live on screen.  While some videos were innocuously funny, most of these were no laughing matter.  For example, there was a male reporter beaten up by a wrestler who was offended with the question during the interview.

Another notable clip is about a journalist who was conducting a live report when suddenly a woman approached and pushed him hard.  Trying to compose himself, he ignored her and continued to do his reporting.  The woman came closer again and hit him on his head with a hard object.

But despite all the harassments and dangers associated with this profession, journalists are still trying to provide information necessary for a free society.
