Video: Streaming a Twitter feed live on air results in a dick pic popping up on US morning news show [NSFW]

DON'T EVER STREAM A TWITTER FEED LIVE ON TV

DON’T EVER STREAM A TWITTER FEED LIVE ON TV.

While social media and broadcast media become ever more closely entangled, this clip shows you why it is still best to mediate information before it goes out on live TV.

This morning, a Fox News channel in Denver broadcast a live stream from an iPad but as any regular user of Twitter will know, you are never more than a few swipes of the finger away from a NSFW picture and that fate befell these presenters.

Their reaction, though entirely understandable, is priceless.

 

Hat-tip to Buzzfeed for the Vine.
