96. Reporters can’t stop laughing at word blunders
Year: 2016

One small slip can result in a series of hilarious bloopers. During a WLUC news broadcast, Sam Bauman meant to say “take” but said “taste” to his female co-worker. The fun didn’t end there.
In an attempt to recover from his mistake, Bauman told his colleague, “just do meat”. This, of course means moving on to the “meat”, of the story. The only viewers who didn’t know the newsroom jargon would have interpreted it differently.
