Live television news coverage rule number one, never put a producer’s Twitter feed live on the air without pre-screening it first.

A Fox 31 producer let a giant uncut penis slip onto the air while scrolling through several random pictures on Twitter.

The reactions of the four surprised anchors is priceless.

UPDATE: FOX31 has issued an apology:



While reporting breaking news about the crash of the KOMO-TV helicopter in Seattle, FOX31 Denver accidentally broadcast an offensive photo while scrolling live through a Twitter feed of pictures from the crash scene. The photo was mistakenly broadcast by our control room. It did not come from the tablet many viewers saw being used by one of our anchors. We apologize for the inadvertent broadcast of the image and we are taking immediate steps to prevent such an accident from happening again.
