This is NOT okay! A BBC News anchor, Maryam Moshiri, was caught on live TV flipping the bird! The nerve! In a display of pure unprofessionalism, Moshiri thought it was appropriate to flash a middle finger at the camera during a Wednesday segment. Can you believe it? She must have forgotten she was on live television, but that’s no excuse for her vulgar behavior.

The anchor’s lack of decorum was immediately noticed by viewers, with one upset X user even questioning the professionalism at the BBC. And rightly so! This kind of behavior is not what we expect from a major news network.
What’s even worse is Moshiri’s attempt to explain the incident as a joke gone wrong. Oh, please! She claimed it was all part of a countdown joke with her team, but that doesn’t excuse her offensive gesture. It’s absolutely absurd to think her behavior was appropriate in any context.
But here’s the real kicker: Maryam Moshiri has the audacity to apologize and try to downplay the whole thing as a harmless joke. She even had the nerve to say it wasn’t her intention to offend or upset anyone. Well, too late for that! Her apology is about as sincere as a used car salesman’s promise.
And get this – viewers in the U.K. are actually forced to pay a yearly license fee to watch television, and a portion of that money goes directly to the BBC. Can you believe they’re using people’s hard-earned money to pay the salary of someone who behaves so disrespectfully on live TV? It’s outrageous!
Is Moshiri facing any repercussions for her unbelievable behavior? Who knows? But one thing’s for sure: this kind of unprofessionalism has no place on our television screens, and the BBC should take action to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
