bloopers

I love, love, bloopers on live TV!  So, every year when the "Best News Bloopers of the Year" I literally can't wait to watch it! This year's is as funny as ever! A YouTube channel  throws together the best news bloopers each month and at the end of the year they post a 15-minute round-up of the best bloopers of the year...

You can never get enough news bloopers and I have always loved the year end, "Best of" compilations. Well, the bloopers are becoming so well covered and published on line, that now we can put up great reels of bloopers every month.

If there's one thing this bloopers video proves, it's that newscasters are human and like any human, they sometimes make mistakes.

When major storms happen it is a given that meteorologists and news reporters will be out in the thick of things reporting what is going on. When that happens, many times you can also be sure that someone will see that as a perfect opportunity to get their 15 minutes of fame on the television.

Earlier this year I posted a video of some great bloopers from news stations around the country. Well, since that time many more slip ups, photobombs and other silliness has happened and it was all all caught on tape.You gotta love live TV.

Bloopers are always funny. It's always a treat to see outtakes from TV shows and movies of people messing up. It's even funnier when it's live and there are no re-takes.

All of us in the radio and TV biz have made flubs.  Of course, at our level, it isn't quite as devastating if we make a mistake --unless we happen to say something that isn't FCC friendly.  And we've had our bloopers, but nothing like these:
