Reporter drops an extremely relatable F-bomb on live TV

This is working from home in 2020 at its finest.

It happens to the best of us.

During a live appearance on MSNBC on Tuesday, reporter Ken Dilanian dropped not one, but two profanities when asked about how the current presidential administration is dealing with President-elect Joe Biden's win.

"Ken Dilanian has some new reporting on... how the Trump administration is handling the transition with the incoming Biden team or not handling it, we should say, to a certain extent," the anchor said. "Ken, what have you learned?"

Dilanian, in an all too relatable answer, responded with whispered, "Oh shit. Fuck."

The broadcast quickly cut back to the anchor, who wrapped it up with an "OK, uhh think we lost Ken for a second."

Later in the show, they blamed the F-bomb on "technical difficulties."

In an apology after the show, Dilanian tweeted that he mistakenly hung up on the control room mid-broadcast, but his mic was still on.

"Perils of playing producer, cameraman and tech support all at the same time from home," Dilanian tweeted.

Working from home has taken up the better part of the year, but we're all still getting the hang of it.
