BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty was forced to apologise to a guest live on air after she made a blunder while interviewing him about the New Orleans attack
BBC Breakfast’s Naga Munchetty issued an on-air apology to a guest following a slight confusion. Co-hosting with Charlie Stayt on Thursday (January 2) morning, they shared the devastating news that at least 15 people had tragically lost their lives and another 30 were injured in New Orleans due to a deliberate attack by a pickup truck driver on a crowd celebrating New Year’s on Bourbon Street.
The attacker has been identified as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, and the FBI has stated they do not believe Jabbar acted alone in this incident, appealing for public help. The FBI is investigating Jabbar’s “potential associations and affiliations” with terrorist groups.
An improvised explosive device was discovered in the truck, and additional potential IEDs were found in the French Quarter, according to the FBI. During a conversation with eyewitness Scott Nelson, who was in a nearby nightclub when the terror unfolded, Naga experienced a blunder when she appeared to get confused.
Introducing Scott via video link, Naga said: “Scott, hello to you. I know you are not in New Orleans now but you were there. Can you just tell me what you knew as the incident was happening because you was inside a nightclub.”
Responding, the correspondent said: “Good Morning, I actually am still in New Orleans. The scene is directly behind me. I was in a nightclub probably 30 metres or so from the scene where the truck crashed and immediately we saw people fleeing the scene and law enforcements running towards it.”, reports the Manchester Evening News.
, as the Express reported. Naga then responded to his evident shock by saying: “It’s very clear that you are still shaken and you are still in the city of New Orleans now, my apologies.”
