I’m new to this thread. I just tuned into MSNBC (can’t stant Shep) and they said the construction was resurfacing. Were they doing major construction on the road, or was it just resurfacing? Thanks for any info.

“Who says something like that?”

I’ve done live television where you are reporting on something as it’s happening and you have to think on your feet where things are changing right before your eyes.

You’ve got a producer talking in your ear telling you to take the feed from somewhere...wrap up because a break i coming up...feeding you updated info...pluse you’ve got assistants constantly handing you script to read and you’re trying to watch the monitor.

And you’re doing ALL of this at once.

Mis-steps and mis-phrased words happen.

I’m not defending Shep here...I’m just trying to give folks who don’t know an idea of the organized chaos going on that you don’t see.

My live reporting was the Ford Funeral...tame by comparison...I’d be pulling my hair out on this one.
