How To Save A News Segment When You’ve Just Spilled The Food You’re Presenting

How are you going to save the segment? Well, if you answered, “Eat it off the floor,” then you’ve won! What you’ve won I’m not so sure.

That’s the way Leslie Horton, host of Global Calgary’s Saturday Morning News, handled it at least. And, you know what, I’m just going to go and say that was the best option. Extra points for invoking the “two second rule.” I always thought the rule was “five seconds,” but that’s just because I’m a barbaric pig.
