Newsreader caught without pants, after reading news

A newsreader in Slovenia has been caught on camera reading the news in a his underpants. The newscast, which has become a hit on YouTube, shows the presenter finishing reading the news. He then moves his swivel chair away from the desk to reveal that he is only wearing boxer shorts with his shirt and suit jacket.

The clip is taken from the credit sequence of Slovenian programme 24UR, which is aired on commercial channel Pop TV. The newsreader and his colleague seem relaxed and unfazed by his unusual attire.

Earlier this week a Norwegian radio journalist quit on the air after complaining about her job and saying she wouldn't read the day's news because "nothing important has happened" anyway. Pia Beathe Pedersen said in the live Saturday broadcast that she was "quitting and walking away" because she "wanted to be able to eat properly again and be able to breathe."

She ended her nearly two-minute announcement by saying there wouldn't be any news on Saturday. The disgruntled reporter had worked at NRK for 18 months.
