Oh my goodness, that made me cry immediately. So glad all of the children are physically ok this time. Prayers to the two staff members who were injured.
I felt at that point when she saw her son, the best thing to do was excuse yourself & go into mommy mode and comfort your son. He say he is alright but probably not.
I think I speak for everyone when I say that we will standby for a couple of seconds while you hug your son during a very scary situation. I'm a former deputy sheriff and I definitely understand the importance of keeping emotions in check while you are doing your thing, but pushing the pause button on your parenting emotions is nearly impossible, especially when your kid needs you. Was pretty obvious he needed his mom for a second.
Some 20 years ago I waited at home with a small baby while my children's father looked for our eldest at the scene of a school shooting. I know the relief she felt seeing her child safe and whole.
@@ericascott9645 because liberals are scared of having armed guards at public schools. This is easily fixed by just having firepower at the entrances of all schools.
@@ericascott9645 There is a reason this problem hasn’t been fixed, the government wants to spread an anti gun agenda so that the public gives up there 2nd amendment rights therefore leaving the government with complete power over America.
Honestly seeing a mom hug her son on scene like this is what I would like to see on news. She is doing her job as both mother and reporter. We shouldn’t look down on that ever. ❤️
All these comments about her having to report and no one probably realized she most likely volunteered to be there. Most would take their kid home but she decided it was best in her interest to not only have a way to be there but learn everything she can about what is going on.
not me. personally, i'd rather never see this crap again. not because i don't love seeing a mother hug her son, but because school shootings should not be so commonplace that the news can capture a reunion like this
@@thetitanhater never said it was the fault of the news (at least not really. i think there's discussion to be had about the general influence of media like news on people's views, but that's a different story). all i'm saying is that i'd rather we actually DO something about gun violence, so that news stations don't HAVE to keep covering those events, because we did something, and they're no longer happening
You can tell she was pulling herself together as she continued to report. I could see the relief on her face knowing her son is safe but she still wants to cry out of happiness.
Can’t even imagine what must’ve been goin’ thru her mind during this school shooting incident knowing your kid is amongst the students possibly targeted there 😨
Probably "Man there probably wouldn't be a shooting if the alt-right didn't lobby against gun controll but whatever!" There is a severe lack of emotion when he goes to hug her from both parties. It's funny how I see righties under vids of parents crying recounting the death of their child via school shooting calling it staged then instantly believing this. fox news don't care about school shooting survivors they bring them up just to criticize them for being against guns.
@@Havik880 Yes but it’s STILL hard to process what he’s gone thru as a mother. Ya gotta be a parent to understand ‘n guessing by your reply, you’re not one yet.
It’s not rare at all. Happens all the time other than being caught in the news. When I was a kid my school locked down for a shooting. And it happened to my kid last month
@@noneyabusiness9441 I’m just saying. This is something literally hundreds of thousands of mothers worry about every year “Did my child get killed at todays shooting”
@@Bigdogspyke I know it is very sad.. no parent should ever have to worry about their child not coming home from school that they have no choice to send them to.
Her son is amazing, knowing his mom just wanted to know he was ok and going out to find her since he knew she was on the job reporting and couldnt go looking for him.
@@Bigdogspykehalf of the parents are not reporters and do not have to stand in front of a camera as their job and report a tragedy that their child happened to be around when it occurred. She hugged her son and was glad that he made it out of the shooting that happened at his school unscathed. It doesn’t make it any less emotional because “half of the parents go through it”.
@@goldengarnet no I mean half of parents hug their kids waiting outside of their recently shot up school, It def makes it less emotional. Like the NRA says, avoid covering gun crimes.
@@BigdogspykeIt doesnt make it less emotional at all. And the hugging wasnt their point. Their point was it happening during her job and then returning to said job immediately afterwards. Remaining professional on reporting on the school shooting that just occured (that her child could have gotten injured or worse in) and still managing to keep it together.
Kudos to her for even being able to report the story so well. As a mom in America we know how dangerous schools are and she was living one of our worst fears live on air and held it together to make sure the proper news got out to the public and other parents who needed to know their child was ok too. I don’t think I could be that composed in that situation.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 Is there another option? It's also not just schools this is happening at, you are just as likely to be shot and killed shopping for groceries or going to the bank.
@@Yuli_Rose Two words Gun Control In Denmark we have had two mass shootings in 45 years. We have gun killings, yes, but they’re deeply inside the criminal groupings. And we have plenty of hunters too. They’re just not allowed to buy a gun without first taking a course and pass an exam. The same goes more or less for competition shooting.
It seems that the general consensus was that she was worried the news agency might take it a bit harshly on her for acting out of character while reporting so she apologized to her colleagues and the news company that was getting this footage because she was worried she was acting unprofessionally because her son wanted comfort from his mother who was busy. It’s unfortunate that news companies are like this, but we at least should be thankful it didn’t seem to happen with this particular reporter.
I felt so bad because she was apologizing, like girl any good parent would've done the same thing. Don't apologize for worrying about your child's safety ❤
Not all kids are ok. Your 'god' sure didnt help them while they were terrorized. Oh what a bad god it is. Not even trying to help while his children are being killed.
@@leonmalaga16 yes you don't have to worry about it, you are a slave already, why would ppl try to get your kids crazy if they are already slaves?, that if you have children, most likely not, it makes a more efficient slave.
The bullsh*t people need to go through to get ahead to prove themselves or “act professional” or to even KEEP their job. It’s ridiculous. Let that mother embrace her child without feeling guilty for God’s sake! Thank God he is ok.
@@crystanick2697 true, in this situation people were understanding, but in SO MANY other occasions people have lost their job because they couldn't maintain composure during a traumatizing event. She had to apologize so much because she feared the same would happen to her. Luckily people had sympathy that day
The first response from her colleague on the other end was "if you need a moment to step aside, please do". Literally no one expected her to not embrace her child in that moment. While I generally agree that sometimes organizations are less than empathetic for personal circumstances, this was not one of those moments.
You didn’t watch the full video and it shows. Literally no one was making her feel guilty for what she did. In fact, they understood and told her to step away if she wanted too.

@@Widdekuu91 It’s not about being “overbearing”, it’s the fact that no matter how old your child gets it is still the baby that you brought into the world and raised. It’s instinctual to feel that protective, loving bond. You should practice empathy if you plan to continue working with children, your callousness is not a positive trait in that regard.
Loved how she can put her parenting aside for a bit knowing her child is safe, it takes courage. Especially when her duty at THAT moment is to give the families who aren’t there physically news and updates on their children.

that’s the strongest woman I’ve ever seen. Her baby walked out of a school shooting and she stood there on the verge of tears still doing her job, it’s just insane and mind blowing to me how she can just stand there not tearing up but wanting to cry. Amen for her and her family.
Just saying he’s good is actually her realizing that her baby is ok . It’s like she was pep talking herself to hold it together. I felt that . The strength she had to get to stay professional.
What a pro! She started to choke and she definitely got as right on tbt edge but got control. That young man needed mom for a moment and she knew her priorities. That is a mom setting an example for her son. What a great moment.
there was a incident few years back when a TV host had to report an accident and she got to know on live TV, that in that accident she lost her husband and son. Truly heartbreaking 💔
aw.. He needed his mom so so bad and he was terrified. This is absolutely heartbreaking. If that were my daughter. Mic down and making sure she's okay. Screw the story, its my child.
Most people would be scared to lose their job. If you lose your job you lose your income to take care of that same child. Not every situation has a win option
@@raiky3259 Well, America is a shithole so. Yes. Not only can school shootings happen, this lady could have been fired for not being professional on air.
She was freaking out on the inside. You can tell she almost lost it when he hugged her. Only thing holding her togetherwas the fact that she didnt wanna freak out in front of him.
Dude her ability to maintain her composure. Like you can tell she's holding it in as it's trying to break the surface. I would have completely lost it. She's a much stronger woman than I am. God protect her and her family
Shes so strong. Trying to care for her son but also being professional. Thankfully he was in contact w her telling her what was happening so she knew he was ok.
I’m glad her son is alright physically. I still don’t understand what the hell our govt is thinking by keeping guns available to the public when shootings are only getting more and more common.
It's a tragedy that's somehow become background noise in a so called civilized nation. I blame the right wing and their increasing madness but the point is, how do we fix this nightmare now?
this is a good argument FOR guns, if there was an armed Teacher or Civilian this would have been solved way faster. Please take a moment to think about when Government bans things do they actually go away???? EVIL WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL! We need good people with guns thats how you protect society.
@@TouchofDepth Did I say the government should ban them? Of course they won’t go away even if we do, ex. Prohibition act. We need better regulation. Unfortunately you can’t just trust “good people” to use their guns for good. Not to mention the gun owners who leave theirs lying around for their mentally disturbed children to grab them and use to THEIR will. I have nothing against gun owners who lock theirs securely away from others unless they are using it, or people who do no harm to others and have one only for self defense. Hell, I’d be fine if teachers could concealed carry. It’s too easy to buy a gun in the US, though, and you unfortunately can’t just trust randos with firearms just because they’re outwardly a good person.
@@pisces2569 What gun control? What are you on about? Move to Canada. People don't have the spine to protect their families, this is on them. It's not going to stop, and no, you can't just take people's guns away.
My school is this schools rival and I kid you not this school had 2 shootings in the same YEAR. First incident was a student getting shot in his car but this city is genuinely so shitty and dangerous. Students from all schools in Denver had a walk out and went to government buildings demanding for more control over fire arms but they didn’t do shit, it was super discouraging to see
The fact that she held it together that much is beyond amazing. Me seeing my son in that situation? Microphone goes flying towards-ish camera person, son is running tackle bear hugged and a million questions asked, rest of segment and "job" can go pluck themselves. This lady is the Professionals Professional.
Professionalism be damned, I will never EVER expect anyone to apologize for showing their love and humanity. News journalists are humans too. I’ve always appreciated moments like these, wherein journalists and anchors show that they’re more than a face and a voice we see on our screens everyday.
Oh man that must’ve been so hard for her to go down and report on this, at her son’s school, not knowing if he was ok until he came out. Hope the kid’s doing ok.
hey there I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hear back from you!
God damn respect the level of professionalism she's got. She knows her baby's okay and she continues to do her job. That takes some strength right there
You see here on screen that this conservative family was left intact and conservative. If the boy had been killed today, this reporter would magically become concerned about gun violence in schools. A lot of people cannot afford 'empathy' and we have to wait until the bullets hit home. Not that empathy COSTS anything, mind you. I mean the conservative world view cannot stomach any empathy whatsoever. If that kid had died, they'd be investigating his lifelong behavior.
What world do we live in where we expect mothers to apologize for worrying about their child's safety and needing to hug them upon seeing that they're okay?
She handled it well. I’m glad her son is safe and sound. Fox News is also responsible for the fight against background checks which would be essential to stop these horrific shootings.
you know how she sound to me, that kind of person who calms other people down and stands the ground when the worst happens, i can hear in her voice how she is kinds struggling but still keeping civil and smiling, as to calm everyone around her down, the viewers, her son, and the people close by, shes the "its all right" kinda person and its amazing, great professional, great mom, great woman.
I have a lot of friends at East and getting the news that there was a shooting made me break down in the middle of a store having a panic attack. That was my reaction for my friends. I cannot imagine what that mom went through or how she was able to continue to report on the situation.

@@TheDogGoesWoof69no it fkng isn't. I hope it's amended to filth soon.
Made me cry…. She has to do her job while worrying about her kids 😢
I felt at that point when she saw her son, the best thing to do was excuse yourself & go into mommy mode and comfort your son. He say he is alright but probably not.
Fox news promotes guns and gun violence
@@lashurediscussion4970 you good, you good ,okay I have to work. I agree with you, he needs her
@@lashurediscussion4970 I agree. Screw the broadcast for a minute, your child needs you more than anything.
@@tiffanyholman4028 Nah dude, aint worth risking your job in this economy. He just had to wait a few minutes.
Don’t ever apologize for hugging your kid. ❤
I think I speak for everyone when I say that we will standby for a couple of seconds while you hug your son during a very scary situation. I'm a former deputy sheriff and I definitely understand the importance of keeping emotions in check while you are doing your thing, but pushing the pause button on your parenting emotions is nearly impossible, especially when your kid needs you. Was pretty obvious he needed his mom for a second.
Don't speak for me. She has a job to do and he's interrupting

How sad for you
You can see in her face the relief, the emotions.
Some 20 years ago I waited at home with a small baby while my children's father looked for our eldest at the scene of a school shooting. I know the relief she felt seeing her child safe and whole.
How disappointing that 20 years later were still going through this.
@@ericascott9645 because liberals are scared of having armed guards at public schools. This is easily fixed by just having firepower at the entrances of all schools.
@@ericascott9645 There is a reason this problem hasn’t been fixed, the government wants to spread an anti gun agenda so that the public gives up there 2nd amendment rights therefore leaving the government with complete power over America.
@@ericascott9645 A lot of Jewish and Christian private schools just armed every adult staff member they never have to deal with dead students.
@@joebungus3447 people are too dumb to realize this. They want complete control over us.
I love that she gave him credit for being her source as well. Even knowing he was alright, is nothing like seeing it for yourself. So touching!!
Honestly seeing a mom hug her son on scene like this is what I would like to see on news. She is doing her job as both mother and reporter. We shouldn’t look down on that ever. ❤️
All these comments about her having to report and no one probably realized she most likely volunteered to be there. Most would take their kid home but she decided it was best in her interest to not only have a way to be there but learn everything she can about what is going on.
not me. personally, i'd rather never see this crap again. not because i don't love seeing a mother hug her son, but because school shootings should not be so commonplace that the news can capture a reunion like this
@@bottomofastairwell That isn't the news' fault, blame it on the system.
@@thetitanhater never said it was the fault of the news (at least not really. i think there's discussion to be had about the general influence of media like news on people's views, but that's a different story).
all i'm saying is that i'd rather we actually DO something about gun violence, so that news stations don't HAVE to keep covering those events, because we did something, and they're no longer happening
@@hardcorenativextremeno mother VOLUNTEERS when you can just BE there!!!🥴 I'd rather spend time with .y child than reporting the news!!!💔
You can tell she was pulling herself together as she continued to report. I could see the relief on her face knowing her son is safe but she still wants to cry out of happiness.
Now she’s apart of the 50% of parents who know what this is like
Can’t even imagine what must’ve been goin’ thru her mind during this school shooting incident knowing your kid is amongst the students possibly targeted there 😨
Well i mean if you had listened you would realize she knew he was alright since HE was the one letting her know what was going on
@Keeves doesn't matter. As a parent you don't rest till you can see for yourself their OK. It's the nature of the gig.
It was a gun free zone?
Probably "Man there probably wouldn't be a shooting if the alt-right didn't lobby against gun controll but whatever!" There is a severe lack of emotion when he goes to hug her from both parties. It's funny how I see righties under vids of parents crying recounting the death of their child via school shooting calling it staged then instantly believing this. fox news don't care about school shooting survivors they bring them up just to criticize them for being against guns.
@@Havik880 Yes but it’s STILL hard to process what he’s gone thru as a mother. Ya gotta be a parent to understand ‘n guessing by your reply, you’re not one yet.
wow you can feel the pain and strength this woman has. she’s amazing
Her son almost running to her, kissing her, hugging her tight, the way you knew, he knew he was ok because, "Mommy's got you" has me in tears ❤❤❤
I would not expect her to do anything different..as a mom I completely understand ❤❤❤❤
It’s not rare at all. Happens all the time other than being caught in the news.
When I was a kid my school locked down for a shooting. And it happened to my kid last month
@@Bigdogspyke a real loving mom is the best thing to have. Props to you mom 💕💕💕
@@noneyabusiness9441 I’m just saying. This is something literally hundreds of thousands of mothers worry about every year
“Did my child get killed at todays shooting”
@@Bigdogspyke I know it is very sad.. no parent should ever have to worry about their child not coming home from school that they have no choice to send them to.
@@noneyabusiness9441 but more guns right 🙄
You never ever have to apologise for hugging your child. Glad he was physically ok, hope he is or will be mentally ok too.
Her son is amazing, knowing his mom just wanted to know he was ok and going out to find her since he knew she was on the job reporting and couldnt go looking for him.
Talk about a professional. How the hell did she keep it together...I don't even have kids and I teared up a bit.
No, No kids either and that was heartbreaking to watch
Can you explain what’s wrong with this? Half of parents go through this these days
@@Bigdogspykehalf of the parents are not reporters and do not have to stand in front of a camera as their job and report a tragedy that their child happened to be around when it occurred. She hugged her son and was glad that he made it out of the shooting that happened at his school unscathed. It doesn’t make it any less emotional because “half of the parents go through it”.
@@goldengarnet no I mean half of parents hug their kids waiting outside of their recently shot up school,
It def makes it less emotional.
Like the NRA says, avoid covering gun crimes.
@@BigdogspykeIt doesnt make it less emotional at all.
And the hugging wasnt their point. Their point was it happening during her job and then returning to said job immediately afterwards. Remaining professional on reporting on the school shooting that just occured (that her child could have gotten injured or worse in) and still managing to keep it together.
Kudos to her for even being able to report the story so well. As a mom in America we know how dangerous schools are and she was living one of our worst fears live on air and held it together to make sure the proper news got out to the public and other parents who needed to know their child was ok too. I don’t think I could be that composed in that situation.
How can you as a mother, or more likely, as a PARENT live with the danger of sending your kids to school?
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 Is there another option? It's also not just schools this is happening at, you are just as likely to be shot and killed shopping for groceries or going to the bank.
@@Yuli_Rose
Two words
Gun Control
In Denmark we have had two mass shootings in 45 years. We have gun killings, yes, but they’re deeply inside the criminal groupings.
And we have plenty of hunters too. They’re just not allowed to buy a gun without first taking a course and pass an exam. The same goes more or less for competition shooting.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 Tell that to our government, not the regular citizens that have zero control over shit like this 🥱
@@Yuli_Rose
The citizens do have control. They choose and elect the politicians.
Nooo, noo she absolutely does not need to apologize, before everything she's a MOTHER ❤😢
It seems that the general consensus was that she was worried the news agency might take it a bit harshly on her for acting out of character while reporting so she apologized to her colleagues and the news company that was getting this footage because she was worried she was acting unprofessionally because her son wanted comfort from his mother who was busy. It’s unfortunate that news companies are like this, but we at least should be thankful it didn’t seem to happen with this particular reporter.
I felt so bad because she was apologizing, like girl any good parent would've done the same thing. Don't apologize for worrying about your child's safety ❤
dont forget, its fox news. they would probably blame the kids for not having guns themselves to kill the shooter or some similar crap.
The fact that this woman felt the need to apologise speaks volumes about where we're at with media culture, both as consumers and creators.
Insane.
Not really
I don't think it's that deep. It's not an apology it's more like an excuse me.
Its called professionalism. 0:42
She should have been given time off. It's not every day there is a shooting at your child's school.. If this is not a 'family emergency' then what is?
Thanks to God her son is ok, hope all kids are ok
They're okay. Only two staff members were injured, and they were non-fatal injuries. The only one who died was the shooter.
In civilised countries we don't have to thank God because children don't have access to guns.
Not all kids are ok. Your 'god' sure didnt help them while they were terrorized. Oh what a bad god it is. Not even trying to help while his children are being killed.
@@leonmalaga16 everything goes according to gods plan so it's his fault. These christians cant even comprehend how dum they sound lol
@@leonmalaga16 yes you don't have to worry about it, you are a slave already, why would ppl try to get your kids crazy if they are already slaves?, that if you have children, most likely not, it makes a more efficient slave.
The bullsh*t people need to go through to get ahead to prove themselves or “act professional” or to even KEEP their job. It’s ridiculous. Let that mother embrace her child without feeling guilty for God’s sake! Thank God he is ok.
Not one person tried to make her feel guilty. Did you even watch it? They literally told her she could step away if she wanted to.
@@crystanick2697 true, in this situation people were understanding, but in SO MANY other occasions people have lost their job because they couldn't maintain composure during a traumatizing event. She had to apologize so much because she feared the same would happen to her. Luckily people had sympathy that day
The first response from her colleague on the other end was "if you need a moment to step aside, please do". Literally no one expected her to not embrace her child in that moment. While I generally agree that sometimes organizations are less than empathetic for personal circumstances, this was not one of those moments.
You didn’t watch the full video and it shows. Literally no one was making her feel guilty for what she did. In fact, they understood and told her to step away if she wanted too.
@@Shanesokiswear the problem is that in a lot of places she'd get in trouble... it's wonderful people there are understanding, but others... not so much...
I’m a grown man and a dad. How she maintained her composure is remarkable!🙌
She's a mom, can understand what that feels like to know he's safe.
Eh this happens to most parents these days. Only difference is it’s recorded on the news
I remember my first school shooting lockdown 😂
@@Bigdogspykenope. Happens to most in America. Spoiler: America isn’t the only country in the world. Shocker I know. But most parents don’t go through this. Sorry to break it to ya 😬.
@@adamdavies4480 yes they do. It’s so rampant this is so normal. Not even newsworthy anymore
That's her baby. So The strength it took to not just hold on to him and not let go is incredible.
@@Widdekuu91 For a parent their child is always their baby. No matter if they are 2 or 22
@@Widdekuu91 You must not have children
@@DeLarger I work with children, I have studied childcare and have witnessed the effects of overbearing parents that cannot accept that their kids are now adults, but no, I do not have children.
@@Widdekuu91 It’s not about being “overbearing”, it’s the fact that no matter how old your child gets it is still the baby that you brought into the world and raised. It’s instinctual to feel that protective, loving bond.
You should practice empathy if you plan to continue working with children, your callousness is not a positive trait in that regard.
@@Widdekuu91pls go be miserable somewhere else
No apologies needed there! You never stop being a mom. 💜
There was no need to say “I’m so sorry” She had every right to do that hug❤
How appalling that this is ongoing!
How sick is this?
This should NOT be a heartwarming scenario, it should not occur full stop.
I just love seeing the bond between a parent and their child.
Loved how she can put her parenting aside for a bit knowing her child is safe, it takes courage. Especially when her duty at THAT moment is to give the families who aren’t there physically news and updates on their children.
you definitely don't have kids even i don't have any but i still know that you can't just put your parenting aside🤨
@@bobbi7990 She hugged her child, she knows he’s safe. There are parents at work who are watching her broadcast wondering what’s happening and looking for news and updates foh. She did well to set aside her parenting
@@Czech_Chaser well what do you think she could have said that couldn't wait for one second?
And if this was so important, that it couldn't wait a second, then for sure you wouldn't be at work, calmly watching the news instead of rushing to get your child. 😅
@@lucamackenzie9229 Unfortunately not everyone gets the news at the same time. Some could have been on a break at work, some could have been watching the broadcast on their way to the scene, point is, there were people relying on her for some information.
@@Czech_Chaser well, but luckily we don't live in China. So she is a human after all and no robot.
that’s the strongest woman I’ve ever seen. Her baby walked out of a school shooting and she stood there on the verge of tears still doing her job, it’s just insane and mind blowing to me how she can just stand there not tearing up but wanting to cry. Amen for her and her family.
No need for sorry; we understand ❤
Legit burst into tears. The way he’s already reaching for her got me. 😢
Hey good morning beautiful how are you doing today hope you're having a wonderful afternoon
Nikki, you're gorgeous. I want to enter you.
I’m happy he’s safe and has a loving mother that cares about him deeply. Thanks to all the hardworking mothers just like this one.

@@droptop288 Yes family first, when not on the job.
Just saying he’s good is actually her realizing that her baby is ok . It’s like she was pep talking herself to hold it together. I felt that . The strength she had to get to stay professional.
What a pro! She started to choke and she definitely got as right on tbt edge but got control. That young man needed mom for a moment and she knew her priorities. That is a mom setting an example for her son. What a great moment.
Hiiii dear 👋
How are you doing today
there was a incident few years back when a TV host had to report an accident and she got to know on live TV, that in that accident she lost her husband and son. Truly heartbreaking 💔
Her voice ❤ you can hear the pain and tears being held back❤
What a professional!! Glad her son is ok 🙏🏼
You can hear the anger at the school and authorities in her voice when she says “he’s the one who was telling me what was happening”
You could tell that she was about to cry, truly a beautiful mother and that kid is blessed to have her as a mom
aw.. He needed his mom so so bad and he was terrified. This is absolutely heartbreaking. If that were my daughter. Mic down and making sure she's okay. Screw the story, its my child.
Most people would be scared to lose their job. If you lose your job you lose your income to take care of that same child. Not every situation has a win option
@@relyk9157 Can you really getting fired for a situation like that in the usa? In Germany it would be against the law. 🤔
@@raiky3259 yeah, doesn’t make it right, but executives have the ability to punish someone for not maintaining professional character
@@relyk9157 oh wow interesting. 😮 Would be dumb for the news channel to do so, but interesting that it would be legal.
@@raiky3259 Well, America is a shithole so. Yes. Not only can school shootings happen, this lady could have been fired for not being professional on air.
She was freaking out on the inside. You can tell she almost lost it when he hugged her. Only thing holding her togetherwas the fact that she didnt wanna freak out in front of him.
Dude her ability to maintain her composure. Like you can tell she's holding it in as it's trying to break the surface. I would have completely lost it. She's a much stronger woman than I am. God protect her and her family
No need to apologise whatsoever. Unbelievable circumstances to be in.
You can tell she wanted to go hug him again ❤
Shes so strong. Trying to care for her son but also being professional. Thankfully he was in contact w her telling her what was happening so she knew he was ok.
Im so sorry for this mama
How dare you as a company know this woman’s son is in a school shooting and be expecting her to stand there and report on it.
What is she to do then!!!???
I’m glad her son is alright physically. I still don’t understand what the hell our govt is thinking by keeping guns available to the public when shootings are only getting more and more common.
Exactly, I was hoping someone would say this. These "random tragedies" wouldn't be happening on a daily basis if we had stricter gun laws
It's a tragedy that's somehow become background noise in a so called civilized nation. I blame the right wing and their increasing madness but the point is, how do we fix this nightmare now?
probably becuase of the second amendment and that guns save more lives than they takes
this is a good argument FOR guns, if there was an armed Teacher or Civilian this would have been solved way faster. Please take a moment to think about when Government bans things do they actually go away???? EVIL WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL! We need good people with guns thats how you protect society.
@@TouchofDepth Did I say the government should ban them? Of course they won’t go away even if we do, ex. Prohibition act. We need better regulation. Unfortunately you can’t just trust “good people” to use their guns for good. Not to mention the gun owners who leave theirs lying around for their mentally disturbed children to grab them and use to THEIR will. I have nothing against gun owners who lock theirs securely away from others unless they are using it, or people who do no harm to others and have one only for self defense. Hell, I’d be fine if teachers could concealed carry. It’s too easy to buy a gun in the US, though, and you unfortunately can’t just trust randos with firearms just because they’re outwardly a good person.
Thoughts and prayers sent to the family and the victims of the school shooting. Lots of thoughts and lots of prayers. Thoughts and prayers for all
Thoughts and prayers and more cheap ammunition.
@@truantrayand no gun control
@@pisces2569 What gun control? What are you on about? Move to Canada. People don't have the spine to protect their families, this is on them. It's not going to stop, and no, you can't just take people's guns away.
My school is this schools rival and I kid you not this school had 2 shootings in the same YEAR. First incident was a student getting shot in his car but this city is genuinely so shitty and dangerous. Students from all schools in Denver had a walk out and went to government buildings demanding for more control over fire arms but they didn’t do shit, it was super discouraging to see
This has to be a wake-up call for US. Most dystopian thing i've seen.
The fact that she held it together that much is beyond amazing. Me seeing my son in that situation? Microphone goes flying towards-ish camera person, son is running tackle bear hugged and a million questions asked, rest of segment and "job" can go pluck themselves. This lady is the Professionals Professional.
I love how she try to keep it professional and keep herself from crying.
Professionalism be damned, I will never EVER expect anyone to apologize for showing their love and humanity. News journalists are humans too. I’ve always appreciated moments like these, wherein journalists and anchors show that they’re more than a face and a voice we see on our screens everyday.
professional and still loving and caring mother
He just wanted to let his mom know he was ok. There is nothing better than feeling safe in your mother's arms.
She definitely needs an award for emotional composure while executing her duties at work..❤❤
Oh man that must’ve been so hard for her to go down and report on this, at her son’s school, not knowing if he was ok until he came out. Hope the kid’s doing ok.
What’s crazy to me is that they let someone with such a connection go out in the field
She was already there of course she was going to be waiting to see her son
It's Fox. Why are you surprised?
and then she goes and works for people calling for more guns and no gun control, what a weird ass country we live in
Maybe the knives was a bit dull, the thug used the gun instead. I don't know. 😅😂
You can see the relief she had. Like she knee but seeing him and holding him made it real he was safe he made it through that nightmare
Can ppl not see how she was barely keeping it together?? This woman is so brave and God bless her and her family
Mom to mom, sis I get it. I'm so glad your son is OK.
hey there I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hear back from you!
@@TravisJohann115- I’m telling your wife
God damn respect the level of professionalism she's got. She knows her baby's okay and she continues to do her job. That takes some strength right there
You can tell he needed that hug by the way he had his arms out
Its amazing to me that our society is going to continue to accept this as the new norm.
Yep, it's as if this country doesn't value human life. Which it certainly doesn't. God people are all kinds of fucked up in this country.
You see here on screen that this conservative family was left intact and conservative. If the boy had been killed today, this reporter would magically become concerned about gun violence in schools. A lot of people cannot afford 'empathy' and we have to wait until the bullets hit home. Not that empathy COSTS anything, mind you. I mean the conservative world view cannot stomach any empathy whatsoever. If that kid had died, they'd be investigating his lifelong behavior.
Speak for yourself. You can accept it if you want.
Wow i know she felt so relieved after she seen her son. So touching.
What world do we live in where we expect mothers to apologize for worrying about their child's safety and needing to hug them upon seeing that they're okay?
She handled it well. I’m glad her son is safe and sound. Fox News is also responsible for the fight against background checks which would be essential to stop these horrific shootings.
The amount of relief she felt after that hug knowing that her son is safe is just-.
you know how she sound to me, that kind of person who calms other people down and stands the ground when the worst happens, i can hear in her voice how she is kinds struggling but still keeping civil and smiling, as to calm everyone around her down, the viewers, her son, and the people close by, shes the "its all right" kinda person and its amazing, great professional, great mom, great woman.
I am absolutely astounded at her level of professionalism in the face of such an event. Wow wow wow. She deserves the world.
This definitely made me tear up. 😢
That’s so wholesome. Made me cry 🥲
Humanity and professionalism. Could feel the collective hug and support.
I have a lot of friends at East and getting the news that there was a shooting made me break down in the middle of a store having a panic attack. That was my reaction for my friends. I cannot imagine what that mom went through or how she was able to continue to report on the situation.
I choked up watching this, how did she not?? So happy for her and her family.
