It is a challenging thing for a news anchor to maintain their personal stance while they are covering any news live. Be it a discussion or a just reading out the bulletin, when you are live on the TV sets, you cannot let anything affect you. But there have been many cases when anchors have just not been able to behold and gave way and had arguments. A recent video has been going viral of two Pakistani anchors getting in a fight with each other. The two cannot do with each other’s behavior and seem to have forgotten that the video is rolling. Although the female anchor does maintain her composure, the male anchor has lost his calm.

The video came on the internet and became instantly viral. It seems like it was a continuation after the break, as the male anchor starts with “How will I start the bulletin with her?” The woman too is arguing and asking the man to behave.

Check out the video of the Pakistani news anchors fight:

This is not the first time there have been such fights on a live TV. On different occasions and different channels, news hosts have got into some fights while they were doing a live show. Let us take a look at some of such incidents.

He had made derogatory remarks and allegedly abused a woman on the show, ended up getting slapped on the live telecast. Audiences were angry at his remarks and the studio soon turned into a fight scuffle.

It is difficult to control such cases especially when the cameras are rolling. But one cannot even predict of a scuffle starting. Although it may seem entertaining for the audiences at first, the people involved can lose their jobs for such mistakes.
