A coverage with 30 seconds notice. Joyce was filling in for Lawrence o donnel but the satellite link failed. Liu picked it up from his desk, not even the studio and has not missed a beat, interviewing the panel etc..
I wonder how scripted these shows are or if they just have people smart enough to think on their feet and pick it up with no notice.

I miss Thomas Roberts on the weekend. He was one of my favorites and they let him go.

Both live and pre-recorded. It is not easy and I am talking about a single general subject with reporters throwing softball questions my way.
To do it impromptu on live national tv is not acting. It requires talent and smarts. And nerves of steel.
