Journalism Fails: Some Instances Where TV Anchors Made the Headlines for More Than Their Work

The Rise of the Carp

Reporters literally have to follow the story wherever it goes. So when Carley Gordon was assigned a story on Asian carp taking over United States waters at the Cheatham Reservoir, she jumped at it. No one could have expected it’ll result in a funny incident.

Because while Gordon was holding a carp and explaining how they can grow up to 12 lbs, the fish wiggled in her hand and scared her. In a blink of an eye, she dropped it and almost toppled herself and a wildlife official into the river. Luckily, no one was hurt and she even tweeted about the incident later.
