Reporter keeps calm as spider crawls on her arm live on TV
TV reporters have to put up with a lot. On top of having to remain stoic in the face of breaking news while on-scene and speaking in a way that the average viewer can understand, there’s the off-chance that some unwanted company will interrupt a live shot.
That's what happened to former reporter Shannon Murray, now with Good Day Fox 4 in Fort Worth.
While reporting on a protest by American Airlines mechanics at the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport early Wednesday morning, a spider made its way down Murray’s left arm.
If Murray noticed, she didn’t give any indication, but eagle-eyed viewers who spotted it quickly made note when the video was shared on Facebook.
"For those asking, YES I felt it! But I had no idea it was a spider until a VIEWER let me know on Facebook! EEK," Murray wrote on Good Day Fox 4's Facebook page.
