Anchor learns of co-worker’s death on air and has to report it live

Live TV got incredibly real.

CtiTV anchor Erich Shih was found dead of an apparent suicide in his home in Taipei. His friend, a fellow anchor, was handed the news on live TV and was asked to report the story for viewers.

The female anchor somehow — through sheer determination and professionalism — manages to get through the report but you can tell it’s absolutely killing her inside.

I’m positive most professionals would have cracked in that moment.
