Vid of news anchor who swallowed a fly. I don’t know why. I don’t see the fly. Maybe she lied.

A news woman swallowed a fly on live TV. I’ve worked in TV news and can tell you that you have to be able to ignore all sorts of things. And somehow flies make their way onto sets all the time. I’ve seen them land in hair, on arm, and faces. I’ve seen anchors make a joke about it. Others somehow ignore the flies. But, I have never seen newsperson eat a fly and then continue like it was nothing………… until this video surfaced.

She makes this terrible face mid-sentence, then swallows, and then moves on. She tweeted later that it was just a regular fly and really gross. I’ve watched the video quite a few times. I’m not seeing a fly buzz around her face or anywhere else on the tape. Hmmmmm.
She swallowed it whole. I wonder if it flew around in her stomach for a while or if it died right away. I’ve never accidentally swallowed a bug. A lot have tried jumping down my throat while a bike ride, but the closest they ever get is up my nose.
