I Want To Give This Female Bloomberg Reporter A Hug


If I had it my way, mortifying moments would stop after a one’s junior high years. They unfortunately follow people for the rest of their lives and in awful cases, take place at work.

This just happened to Bloomberg TV reporter Sara Eisen, who wore a bewildered expression on her face when the camera not-so-gracefully switched from another anchor to her just as she was fixing her dress. The poor thing was caught mid-adjustment and off-guard but started her segment without stumbling or appearing violated or humiliated in any way. She smiled, seeming to laugh at herself, which is more than most could do. My face would have been burning in embarrassment, so the Trooper of the Year Award goes to the classy woman here:

    “This just happened to Bloomberg TV reporter Sheila Dharmarajan….”

    How come all the images I see for “Sheila Dharmarajan” are dark-complected brunettes? No, this is “Sara Eisen.” I think Laura needs a hug today.

    BTW what was this black thing she had between her legs?

    Maybe she shouldn’t pull up her dress in public???  Maybe I should be able to drop my pants at my desk to “adjust” and just have people laugh it off.

    So, you feel so bad for her that you felt compelled to write up a story about her and post the video as well? Your face would have been burning in embarrassment, so you go ahead and link video of her in the same situation?

    I know you’re in the business of generating clicks and revenue, but don’t say at the same time you’re exploiting someone else’s embarrassment that you feel sorry for their embarrassment.

    Ha.  That’s a good point.  I hadn’t considered that.

    But it’s a good catch, anyway. From what I can tell, Bloomberg is moving towards a new business model: crappy half-baked superficial pro-business bullshit interspersed with occasional upskirts shots.

    It’s not a good point if in fact Bloomberg’s is moving towards soft-core porn.

    I meant @MichaelJKeane:disqus made a good point about pointing out the odd irony in the article and its author’s sentiment.

    OK, a couple of things here:  Both reporters have IFB’s (ear pieces so they can hear directions from their producers in the control room as well as other hosts/guests in remote locations).  It’s clear to me (being a TV techie) that the first reporter was having a microphone problem.  Since the microphone came back just before the camera switched, I’d have to say it was an issue with the audio person not having the proper fader up (the volume/gain control for her microphone). 

    A decision was made in the control room to switch to Ms. Eisen quickly.  It certainly wasn’t the camera person’s fault.  Someone directed the camera person to move to Ms. Eisen’s shot.  The camera person is focused on the other person prior to that so has no idea what Ms. Eisen is doing until directed to switch his/her shot.  It’s obvious no one in the control room knew what she was doing, either, since there was one camera being used.  It was up to Ms. Eisen to “be ready” for her shot and she got caught. 

    To Ms. Donavan:  It’s “Trouper”, not “Trooper”.  A “trooper” is a member of the state police or a cavalry unit.  A “trouper” is the correct word in this context –”…a person who deals with and persists through difficulty or hardship without complaint.”

    It’s not your spelling that’s at issue – that would be the case with my writing of your name.  “Trooper” is an entirely different word with an entirely different meaning, one that rookie writers frequently confuse.  I’m trying to be helpful to you, as it’s a reflection upon you as a writer.  Just fix it already.  Everyone makes mistakes, myself included.  Who knows, I might have even made more in my reply here.  If I can edit, why don’t you?

    To whom do you think members of the calvary (or a military unit) complain? They don’t. These words are correctly used interchangeably and are listed in some dictionaries as synonyms. “Troop” is derived from the French “troupe” n’est ce pas?

    The demographic that knows “faux” is not pronounced like the word “Fox”.

  • Anonymous

    A simple Google search would reveal that the overwhelming opinion regarding best practice for writers employing the word in this context is to use “trouper” vs. “trooper”.  If dumbing down language makes it acceptable simply because of misuse, then let’s call it for what it is.

    In a news environment, things like the skirt being hiked up is common.  Catching it on air is not, unless the director decided to throw it in for a little spice.  Hell, I knew an anchorman who drank so much he’d do a newscast in his underwear, but always had a nice coat and tie on.

    As a second-generation California Native, I can ASSURE YOU, the ENTIRE STATE deserves REPEATED JABS (until it comes to its financial senses, and STOP electing these spend-a-holic Liberals)!

    Congress is discussing J.P. Morgan Chase’s loss of $2 Billion (PRIVATE INVESTOR DOLLARS), whereas California Government’s Budget Deficit is $16 BILLION (8 TIMES AS LARGE) – and where’s the OVERSIGHT?

    Then again, Congress has racked up 16,000 BILLION (or 8,000 TIMES as much debt), and THEY are the ones wanting to tell J.P. Morgan Chase how THEY should be running their business?!

    Pardon me, but Liberal Politicians (and RINOs who go along with them) can go screw themselves!

    Oh, so the Governator simply doesn’t count as one of your own. How Republican of you to simply forget.

  • Anonymous

     States are all suffering the same fate, which is that they are not receiving nearly as much in federal revenue because Republicans decided to give the super wealthy some welfare, to the tune of 5 trillion dollars thus far.  If you don’t like the shortfall, “blame yourself” for voting for the spending spree of tax breaks for the uber wealthy, two unfunded wars, unfunded mandates like Medicare part D, and the largest expansion of gov’t in world history, also known as the Department of Homeland Insecurity.
    Republicans handed us a combined debt bill of 13.5 trillion  dollars, and then told the states to “suck it”.  Welcome to the hell that you yourself voted for.
