CNN Anchor Passes Out on the Air (Video)

“I got a little hot and I passed out for a moment,” Poppy Harlow explains to worried viewers

CNN anchor Poppy Harlow, who is pregnant, fainted while broadcasting live on the air on Monday.

She recovered and is reportedly fine.

The incident occurred when Harlow was in the middle of reporting “bad news for the Obama administration” in the form of a network poll showing 74 percent of those surveyed were not happy with the fight against terrorism.

A graphic was on the screen, so the anchor was not visible when she passed out, but viewers could hear Harlow slur her words and start breathing heavily before falling silent.

Although down, Harlow was not out, as she addressed the incident later on in the broadcast.

“I got a little hot and I passed out for a moment. I am fine,” the pregnant anchor said before addressing concerns on Twitter, too.
