BBC reporter gets harassed while filming street harassment report

[Supersonic 49,376]

Sarah Teale was filming outside a conference on the subject in Nottingham when a man directed a s-xual comment towards her.

The East Midlands Today reporter said she was "genuinely shocked" by what the man said.

She said: "It's not banter, it's not funny and no-one should have to put up with it."

In the clip, Teale can be heard explaining: "An online study showed that a shocking 95% of people said they had been harassed, jeered at, or had obscenities shouted at them in the street and a large proportion said they'd also been groped or grabbed inappropriately in public."

Then, as a comment is made, she can be seen pointing ahead and saying: "Yeah, like that."

But really what an asshole this guy is. But obviously he did it on purpose as he might've been hearing. He seems like that kind of guy who would vote for "Deez Nuts" for president.

I don't consider "**** her right in the *****"  true harassment. It's a hugely-popular meme.

I'm originally from Nottingham, and I can say in the 20 years I've lived there (now being in London) this is a daily occurrence. But it isn't just s-xist abuse shouted, there's still quite a lot of homophobia too - I'd often get verbal abuse for my feminine look

The irony of men. They don't get that they're taken as foul and bad jokes at all...

In other words, he has a sense of humor. What an asshole.

Oh no you don't, Qualle1. F.H.R.I.T.P. is not the same as random harassment. It only happens to news anchors and the motivation is completely different. They're not even targeting the reporter as much as the station and the viewers, the reporter is just a prop. The main motive is to be internet famous.

so in what world, is telling a female reporter who is doing her job 'f*ck her right in the p**sy' ok? I'm not sure you'd see the joke if it were you just having a nice day at work spoiled by one mans s-xist jeer

I don't find it funny at all and I give a flying **** about the intention this scumbag might have.
