Another day, another instance of a preachy mainstream media journalist being called out for not practicing what they preach when it comes to mask-wearing.
As if the incident involving the MSNBC reporter being filmed and called out by a random passerby during a live segment on mask-wearing for his cameraman not wearing a mask was not hilarious enough, CNN has been caught in the act as well.
In the clip below, you see CNN reporter Gary Tuchman, a self-styled expert on the Wuhan coronavirus, interviewing beachgoers in Alabama about whether or not they had any concerns about catching the virus because they were around so many other people. During the same segment, the issue of wearing masks came up, and Tuchman who walked around the beach in a mask as the cameras were rolling noted he saw a grand total of zero people wearing the masks on the beach, and then proceeded to interview people on the matter:
But when the cameras stopped rolling, this is how Tuchman looked:
A FourthWatch reader sent me these images of CNNs GaryTuchmanCNN filming this report from Alabama yesterday - wearing a mask while walking the beach and interviewing people - but removing his mask when the cameras were off.

The virus lasts 2 minutes in sunlight and 80 degree temps.
'Save lives, stay home, wear a mask, show you care'Ignorance is bliss.
If you're wearing a mask, why do I need one?
Mask or not. You have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting the virus.
You can't be serious about your protection unless you wear gloves and never touch your face.
Bigger then ever
Expanded across the road where boats can tie up
Even has their own Sunday morning services
There are no beaches in Alabama? Was there an earthquake? What happened to them?
What are the gloves for?
No one can explain that
It is helpful to put the sarc tag on things or one looks like an idiot.It is not fun to comment/post and look idiotic. Been there and done that. There are still no beaches in Alabama! /s
Except in November. You and I definitely have issues in November. ;)🦅
pretty sure he is discouraging people (YANKEES!) to visit his lovely state. So there are nO beaches.
I dream to live in Alabama one day!
What are the gloves for?Doctors and scientists can and do.No one can explain that
Hands to face are how virus, all virus are transferred.
You touch something an infected person touches, then touch your face to screw with your mask that does nothing unless your eyes are also covered.
If you don't know what gloves do you also don't know what washing your hands do.
BTW, why do you need a mask if you maintain (the arbitrary) (anti) social distance?
Like I said, ignorance is bliss.
I see what you did there.
When you stated that there werent any beaches in Alabama, my first impression was to ask what drugs you were on.
Lived in Mobile since 1972. Grew up hanging out on Dauphin Island and Gulf Shores. I cannot believe the number of people who thought that was a serious comment. Too many to even reply to. Just damn.
Ive been to orange beach a couple of times in my teens looking for surfing spot.
Not much surf. But the white sand beach sure was nice. And my favorite squeeze at the time was sure nice too.....
(Spent my HS years in Pensacola:)
You done good...
You should have kept your mouth shut and let people think you are stupid.
You should get a sense of humor. I thought my screen name would tip off intelligent people that my post was supposed to be funny. I live in Mobile. I know about the finest beaches in world. I dont want anyone else to know.
There are no beaches in Alabama? Was there an earthquake? What happened to them?
My post was supposed to be funny. I never dreamed....oh, never mind.
So you touch your face with your bare hands and you transfer it to face...
or you wear gloves and transfer it from gloves to face.
What good are the gloves?
CDC moved ‘get it from surfaces’ to the ‘your probably NOT going to get it this way’ list
I got it right away and was stunned at the response.
Saving to resend! Very good.
Its a shame so few can detect humor.
As God is my witness I thought it was obvious, especially with my screen name. Im being called stupid and everything else. Ill put a disclaimer in bold red letters next time.
You act like youre an outraged Southerner but you dont know Alabama has beaches? What are you? A slumming antifa?
No, apparently Im a bad comedian.
