The Craziest Things News Anchors Have Said And Done On Air

#61. The Time Nancy Grace Found A Missing Kid

In what was largely regarded as one of the craziest Nancy Grace moments of all time, the HLN anchor brought on the father of a missing 12-year-old boy to tell him his son had been found in his basement. If the father looks shocked, there’s a good reason—it’s the first time he’s heard the news.

#62. Nancy Grace vs. Casey Anthony

One of the things that made the Casey Anthony trial so difficult was the massive amounts of media coverage it received. Casey Anthony, who was acquitted of murder charges of her daughter Caylee, found herself the target of numerous reports dissecting her personal life, few of which had to do with the details of the trial, and Nancy Grace made it clear that she believed Anthony was guilty.

#64. Luxury Refrigerators

How he confused that with “block party” is something only Freud himself could figure out.
