TAIPEI -- A Taiwanese television presenter was hospitalized after a mosquito flew into her mouth, choking her and interrupting her live news broadcast.
The mosquito got so deep into Huang Ching's mouth that it was stuck in her windpipe, touching off severe asthma, China Times media group said yesterday.
China Television Co. had to urgently put on a four-minute advert while it drafted in a replacement presenter to carry on with the news.

It was not just the mosquito, from what I’ve heard. She got an asthma attack as a result of the ingestion.
To: TigerLikesRooster
She should have swallowed DDT afterward.

Agggggggh! I just inhaled a mosquito!
I’m glad she’s OK now, and hope she has a sense of humor about it happening on national TV.
In the meantime, the TV station should hire a different exterminator.

Our own King Obomba wouldn’t have had that problem. Flies and other insects fear him, even though there’s something about him that appeals to flies.

Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm.

I love these stories about video with no video.
They say there’s a youtube, but I haven’t found it.
