News Anchor ‘Flips Off’ National TV Audience
When you turn on the news you expect to get some bad stuff. You don’t think that the anchor will be telling you that you are ‘number 1.” A news anchor ‘flipped off’ a national TV audience. It was of course an accident.
Maryam Moshiri is a lead anchor for the BBC and she became the center of controversy. Maryam did what is probably done by news anchors around the world. She was messing with the crew when the cameras caught the gesture live. Oops.
CBS News reports that Moshiri said she was pretending to count down as the director counted down from 10. She held up 10 fingers and counted down on them. When the countdown reached one, she turned her middle finger around “as a joke and did not realize that this would be caught on camera.”
So far the BBC hasn’t had any response. I am sure they did behind closed doors.
Study Says This Is The Best North Carolina TV Show Of All Time
When you think of TV Shows filmed in North Carolina what is the first show that comes to your mind? A few years ago there actually a large number of shows filmed here due to tax breaks offered to the film industry. Those tax breaks have since ended and the filming packed up to relocate elsewhere. But we aren’t simply talking about shows that were filmed in North Carolina, in fact, some of the ones on this list weren’t filmed here at all. What they do have in common, is they were set in NC. Our friends at BetCarolina conducted research and shared it with us, about the best the North Carolina TV Show of all time.
How did they come up with this list? Well, they first consulted Wikipedia’s “Television Shows Set In North Carolina” page as a starting point. That’s where the studied shows came from. From there, they created a “weighted scoring system”. This system used IMBD ratings, Rotten Tomatoes Scores from audiences and critics, as well as awards show recognition.
So while you’re favorite set in North Carolina TV Show may have made the list perhaps it didn’t rank as high as you think it should. One wildly popular show actually came in 10th on this list. And it’s one I know many many people who are die-hard fans of to this day. It ranked below several shows I’d never heard of. Although full disclosure I don’t think I’ve ever seen an episode of any show on this list. Judge me all you want. So for that reason I will spare you my uneducated opinion on the topic.
