Television anchors in tantrum as they miss bridge explosion

　　Two Chicago television anchors run into a comic paper-throwing tantrum when they missed a bridge implosion they had been covering on live television on Friday.

　　Morning hosts Robin Baumgarten and Larry Potash from WGN (World's Greatest Newspaper) news spoke for three minutes about the impending explosion of the Seneca bridge over the IIllinois River. Throughout their talk, the bridge stands still in front of television viewers.

　　"I think we're gonna stay with this," Baumgarten told the camera. "It's supposed to happen right at seven o'clock." Minutes later, nothing had happened and the bridge was still there. The show then cut away to the weatherman.

　　However, within just seconds, the explosion happened, and the news show missed it. The program went back to the live river shot, showing the steel bridge blown up and collapsed down into the river.

　　"Are you kidding me?" Baumgarten cries in mock exasperation, balling up paper and throwing it towards the camera. "We stay live for three minutes and cut away for five seconds...." She started wildly gesticulating and pounding the table with her fists while Potash stuffed paper into his mouth, chewed it up and spit it out.
