Look I get it .  When you are a young field reporter for a local television station you get the snow assignment. I've been there.   But one field reporter for WLOS in Asheville took shananigans to the next level.  When I was a student  at Western Carolina University, I worked for WLOS some as a stringer and those are hallowed halls.  I love that  people laughed it off.

Justin Hinton got "the assignment".  There is also the occasional downtime when it comes to television so apparently  Justin was playing around with his facebook filters.  It is not clear to me if he meant to or not but Justin had those filters on and blaring during the broadcast.  Bottom line.  It's hilarious.  The fans loved it and the bosses didn't seem to mind.

Take a look.
