Reporting Live. Very Carefully

摘要

During the recent San Francisco Pride Parade, KRON News Director Mark Antonitis began to feel a little tense when he saw a group of female motor-cyclists head toward him. Referred to as "Dykes on Bikes," some members of the entourage are sometimes known to ride topless—and they were moving into camera range. Besides Antonitis, almost everyone involved with the story that day—the program director, producers, photographers, audio technicians and reporters—was on the lookout for a shot that might earn them an indecency fine from the FCC. "Everyone is aware they have to be conscious of this," Antonitis says. Luckily, the bikers passed—some topless—but no nudity got on-air.
