Disgusting TV Moment Caught on Camera Sparks Viral Outrage
7News reporter brought to light an unsavory incident filmed live during their transmission.
Originally stationed in Perth, then relocating to Melbourne, Kate Massey, a journalist, posted a funny blooper video on her TikTok profile featuring herself outside the main building of the Western Australia Police Department.
In the video, it appeared that Kate was receiving some cosmetic enhancements prior to appearing on-screen. Her cameraman gently ran his fingertip over her hair to neaten it before she went live.
Kate was visibly disgusted by the move as she awkwardly looked away and down her nose.
The assistant replied, “It remained there!” This statement was made due to the host’s facial cues, causing a chuckle from the presenter.
‘You don’t get that service from Luke,’ she said, hinting at another staff member.
In a hilarious quip, the cameraman joked: ‘It’s my natural hairspray!’
Kate captioned the post, which has amassed 135,700 views, ‘Nightmare fuel’.
Many people who watched the video filled up the comment area with laughter, labeling the journalist as a ‘dad’, in reference to his reaction towards the DIY assistant.
One individual posted, ‘Fathers are forever fathers,’ prompting another to respond, ‘It’s all about the secondary father vibe. The finest kind for collaboration.’
‘I just KNOW you hated this HAHAHA,’ one person wrote.
‘Nah this would cause me to go into a MELTDOWN,’ another levelled.
One person added: ‘The facial reaction BAHAHA.’
‘Aye he got it done in a matter of seconds which is why he’s been hired haha,’ a fan pointed out.

Last October, it emerged that the country’s top two commercial television stations were engaged in a fierce battle over talent, reminiscent of a galactic space war, as they attempted to lure each other’s most skilled and promising stars away from their respective networks.
Inside Seven’s Sydney office, it is reported that they have had to defend against Nine’s pursuit of several talented younger journalists. Both networks are engaged in a fierce competition for top ratings positions.
Instead of trying to poach talent, Seven made a move by launching an attack on Channel Nine’s team, successfully persuading three of their top AFL analysts from the Footy Classified show to switch sides.
A senior network insider informed Daily Mail Australia that the large-scale network poaching raids we are currently witnessing have not been observed since the 1990s.
At present, the competition is extremely fierce – since there are fewer audiences, the struggle for attention among broadcasters has never been greater. They’re pulling out all the stops in an effort to gain an advantage.
According to seven sources, it appears that Nine has been focusing on its up-and-coming female journalists in their newsrooms nationwide, launching a remarkable campaign of targeted attacks.
The disclosures emerge following rumors that Nine was growing apprehensive about the substantial difference in expertise between their established news anchors and their emerging talent.
As a diligent follower, I’ve learned that industry insiders have hinted that my name, Sharnelle Vella, has been identified as a priority target by Network Nine, given their proactive efforts to address certain matters. This is in reference to my distinguished work as a political reporter based in Melbourne.

As a fervent admirer, I can’t help but sing the praises of Vella. Her compelling, hard-hitting news segments on Seven’s evening broadcast have left me awestruck, and her captivating co-hosting role on the popular podcast Dead Bodies has only further cemented my admiration. She truly is a beacon of journalistic excellence!
She demonstrated her exceptional skill level by conducting an exclusive interview with ex-CFMEU boss, John Setka, on their Spotlight program in August, further solidifying her reputation.
Reports indicate that Channel Nine is considering Cassie Zervos, a well-respected colleague of Vella’s and a swiftly ascending figure in Seven’s Melbourne newsroom, who has been with them since moving from the crime desk at the city’s Herald Sun six years ago.
In the city of Perth, it’s being reported that television network Nine has expressed strong interest in journalist Kate Massey, a versatile and talented reporter who has been associated with Seven for nearly four years. Before joining Seven, she gained valuable experience as a producer at Nine’s 6PR talkback radio station.
As a lifestyle expert, I find myself drawing notice in our country’s capital, where I serve as the national health editor. In 2020, I was honored with the title of Canberra’s Press Gallery Journalist of the Year, and I continue to make waves in the journalism world.
Initially, Liam Tapper, a reporter based in Sydney for Seven’s Sunrise morning news show across the nation, was among those targeted, alongside other Sydney reporters such as Natasha Squarey and Ashlee Mullany who work as Europe correspondent.
One source revealed that Channel Nine boasts a significantly larger news division than Channel Seven, as it additionally features well-resourced shows such as A Current Affair and 60 Minutes. This means they have a larger budget and can provide more chances for upcoming journalists.
They are trying to seize this opportunity created by the turmoil in our newsroom to poach our top young journalists, with the aim of causing some instability as well.
Seven remained silent when questioned about whether they had established a reserve fund to keep their top talent or revealed their strategies for retaining all their popular journalists.
Despite nine not revealing any details about their future plans, it’s been confirmed by an inside source that they are not actively recruiting competitors’ staff, contrary to some rumors.
