Working nights and weekends? Check. Standing out in the rain to cover some event? Check. Making an embarrassing mistake that manages to air and go viral? Yeah, this is exactly what print reporters’ nightmares are made of.
It’s with much sympathetic cringing that we must share with you the KHQ clip that’s going viral after mistakenly including some rather profane language from reporter Lindsay Nadrich as she reported from the Strawberry Festival — there are multiple instances of the one word we’re not allowed to print here at The Inlander, so it’s possibly NSFW depending on your workplace.
The station attributed the mistake to an editing error, since it wasn’t a live shot. Nadrich apologized. (Keith Olbermann even spoke up on Twitter in Nadrich’s defense.)
OK, we’re all going to go thank our editors now. And make sure they’ve had enough coffee today.
