The Hazards of Live Reporting, chapter 832


Channel 4's Sue Turton was covering the British floods last week when Rufus Burdett decided to lift everyone’s spirits during the “dull and depressing situation". I love the way the Brits handled this. The police found him a week later and “cautioned” him. Can you imagine American cops going to the trouble to find a perpetrator to issue a warning? The Daily Mail went to his home, and on finding he wasn’t there, went to the local watering hole to interview his drinking buddies instead.
