The Worst Broadcasting Performances of All-Time

There are plenty of people out there who have dreams of being a broadcaster on TV. They study broadcasting in college, they try internships and do what they can to get ahead. However, some people just aren’t cut out for television. The clips below feature some of the worst reporting ever recorded in the history of the medium.

10. Reporter Makes Freudian Slip
This Fox New reporter makes a tiny Freudian slip here and well… I can’t blame him.

9. The Child Molester Weather Reporter
This weather reporter must have done something to anger someone in the graphics department. Take a look at his name in the clip.

8. Reporter Stung by a Bee
Rod Wood wants to give the people of Syracuse some breaking news. A tiny bee is all that is stands in his way.

7. Newscaster is a Homophobe
Cleary this reporter does not like gays…not even if they’ve climbed Mt. Everest!

6. Reporter with Tourette Syndrome
Now I’m not one to make fun of people over things they can’t control but if you have tourette syndrome, a weatherman might not be the best occupation.


5. Reporter Doesn’t Realize He’s on the Air
This reporter shows he’s very capable of counting to ten but not capable of reporting the news. Perhaps he should go back to kindergarten where counting to ten is quite an achievement.

4. Reporter Goes Ghetto
This reporter goes back to his roots after something sets him off…

3. Weatherman Shits his Pants on Live TV
Things start out promising enough for this aspiring weatherman until nature calls at the most inopportune time. This weatherman gives it his best effort to hold it in until the show is over, but his colon has other plans. Take a look at the 47 second mark. He clearly tries to clench is but cheeks but to no avail. Poor bastard.

2. The Worst Weatherman Ever
Poor Louis. He dreamed of being a weatherman all his life. It’s just not meant to be. He just can’t seem to get it together. What shouldn’t be overlooked is stiff delivery by the female reporters. They have a great career ahead of them in the porn industry.

1. Boom Goes the Dynamite
Based on the 4 million plus hits this has gotten on YouTube, I’m sure you’ve probably seen this one. This is the Mona Lisa of bad broadcasting. Ball State’s own Brian Collins just can’t seem to get on track with the teleprompter and desperately tries to put a coherent sentence together.

    After watching these videos I feel as though I have incurred the sudden onset of an anxiety disorder. I also speculate that this “Brian Collins” character has found a nice, cozy cave to singularly live out the rest of his days, away from those 4 million viewers who had the privilege of watching this cringe-worthy broadcast.

    Side note: Thank you so much for putting my name up for consideration as the May featured blogger!

    Last I heard he actually got a real job as a broadcaster but was quickly fired. http://deadspin.com/5299705/brian-collins-waco-job-has-gone-boom-update

    You’re welcome Wynn. The nomination was well deserved.
