First rule of being a reporter: don’t become the news! (We’re just guessing, we’re celeb bloggers, LOLz!)
ABC News reporter Will Reeve broke that rule on accident Tuesday morning when he half-assed — or should we say half-thighed? — his appearance on Good Morning America.

Speaking from his home over video chat, the journalist was meant to be reporting on drones being tasked with delivering medication for pharmacies in the age of the quarantine. However, the story quickly became the fact Will had skipped half his outfit!
He almost got away with it thanks to the crawl of news…
However, when his screen was split with the desk — at which Michael Strahan and Savannah Guthrie are sitting the designated six feet apart — viewers were treated to Will’s exposed thighs.
Yep. He skipped putting pants on!
The reporter quickly went viral as viewers couldn’t help but notice!
He took it with good humor — though he was insistent he was wearing shorts and not underwear. (We’re frankly dubious — that’s a LOT of thigh!)
I have ARRIVED*

A couple of hours later he tweeted out a full apology, writing:
“Trying to be efficient I got ready for a post-GMA workout a little too soon this morning. The camera angle, along with friends, family, and several hundred strangers on social media made me rethink my morning routine.”
We understand how important workouts are, especially when you’re the son of Superman (Will’s father was the late, great Christopher Reeve), but come on! Take the extra two minutes to put on pants!
His next sentiment came across to us as a touch sarcastic, however, as he said:
“Any sartorial tips from these people who are wearing a belt, trousers and shoes during their work video calls at home are most welcome. Now, back to work. Wearing pants.”
LOLz, well, it’s true, it may seem a little overboard to put on the belt and shoes just for a Zoom call. But if you’re going to be on live TV, maybe put in the extra little bit of effort? To save potential national embarrassment? Just a thought.
Hey, it could have been worse. He could have shown the world his husband’s naked dong in the shower like THIS local newswoman! Ha!
Honestly, we’d probably be fine with less clothing from everyone all around on TV. We mean, at this point, who cares, right??
What do YOU think, Perezcious readers??
