Meanwhile, earlier, an American news anchor started to have a stroke live on air. This led her to fumble, not once, but again and again. Reporting on NASA’s postponed Artemis-I launch, Julie Chin of Tulsa NBC station KJRH found that she suddenly couldn’t speak the words she was reading from her teleprompter. A video of the same is now going viral on social media. In the video, she can be heard saying, “I’m sorry, something is going on with me this morning and I apologise to everybody." The news anchor then tossed it over to the weather team. “Let’s just go ahead and send it on to meteorologist Annie Brown."
Senior Executive at NBCUniversal, Mike Sington tweeted the video. In the caption, he wrote, “Tulsa news anchor Julie Chin has the beginnings of a stroke live on the air. She knew something was wrong, so tossed it to the meteorologist, as her concerned colleagues called 911. She’s fine now, but wanted to share her experience to educate viewers on stroke warning signs."
