A sharks not THE Sharks

To paraphrase Peter Benchley's newscaster cameo in Jaws, there was clouded judgement in the shape of killer sharks on Sacramento’s ABC 10 sports report last week.


Sports reporter, Lina Washington, was talking about the San Jose Sharks. Instead of images of the ice hockey team appearing on screens it was images of actual sharks.


It turns out that it been a busy day for shark news, of both the fish and human kind, and there had just been a mix up in the edit suite.


Unflustered on air, Washington took the error in her stride. She said: "This is not the sharks we are talking about but the Sharks did lose tonight."


Now we just need a super edit of Jaws with the shark scenes replaced by the San Jose Sharks.
