Lebanon Reporter Attacked On Air During Beirut Protest

Lebanon Reporter Attacked Live On Air

"Stand back from the protesters"... is what this reporter's producer should have been shouting in her ear before she got caught up in a melee covering anti-government riots in Lebanon.

Those screams at the end sound pretty authentic.
