Pity the remote reporter who has no control when the feed goes live and Stacy Valentine in Sex Commandos (1999) full moviecatches him or her in a vulnerable moment.

This happened to NBC's Matt Bradley who was broadcasting a live spot from Syria about the fight against ISIS. When the feed switched over, unbeknownst to Bradley, viewers got a full dose of the reporter using his spit to fix his hair.

Indeed, fighting continues in Syria despite reports that ISIS has lost control of its last territory in the war-torn country. But when it came to the spitting incident, Bradley handled the reaction with good humor.

With that out of the way, Bradley did eventually get to do his report on-air, free of any spitting, and he continues to relay essential information from the ground where the fight continues.
