Sports Using a Dry Erase Board

In one of the strangest videos I’ve ever seen, TV station WECT in Wilmington, NC had to resort to using a dry erase board during its 11 p.m. sportscast on Thursday. The newscast apparently lost its graphics and tape so the sports anchor read scores from a high school basketball tournament while the news anchor held the board with the scores written in scratch. I can’t embed it, but I can link you to the sports report.
