CNN: We Don't Watch Us Either

August 30th, 2006 | by Todd W |

This isn’t a huge issue, but it is amusing. Viewers who happened to be watching the President give a speech were instead treated to audio of Anchoress Kyra Phillips using the restroom. It seems her microphone was live and going out over the air for nearly a full minute, drowning out the President.

Mistakes happen, and fortunately for Phillips, nothing horribly embarrassing occurred.

But how did CNN not notice the problem for so long? You’d think a Presidential speech qualifies as news; after all it is ON CNN…and CNN, as a news organization, might be expected to listen to the speech for anything notable to report…

I’m just sayin’….
