Reporter Went Live With Googly Eyes And Wizard Beard, Gave Everyone A Good Laugh

As the report was broadcasted on Facebook, some filters were available to be used, and for some reason, they were turned on when Hinton went live

The news industry is quite harsh when it comes to mistakes, as the public relies on reporters and journalists to know exactly what is going on in the world. However, that depends on the kind of mistake.

The latest blooper of Justin Hinton is an example of something we can all forgive. On a trip to North Carolina, the U.S, Hinton wanted to report the snowfall that was blocking the roads and he did it with professionalism when everything went hilariously wrong.

As the report was broadcasted live on the Facebook page of the station, some filters were available to be used, and for some reason, they were turned on when Hinton went live.

Unknowing of what was going on, the reporter went on with a serious tone of voice, which makes the gold headband and medallion on his head looked even funnier.

The filters switched to dumbbells, wizard beard and hat, googly eyes, and a purple mustache.

Hinton said that he had no idea what was going on. He must have accidentally activated the app filters right before going live. The photographer did tell him of something weird going on but since he did not explain exactly what, the reporter did not think it was serious enough to stop.

And as you have guessed, viewers find this incident highly amusing.

It all turned out fine for the reporters as even his boss thought it was funny. A person even commented that he would watch the weather more as the result of this hilarious incident.

In his Facebook post about the incident with the filters, Hinton seems to have embraced what happened and told everyone in Carolina to enjoy the snow day with a smile.
