This week’s award for most awkward, faintly porny moment goes to Action News 5 reporter Janice Broach.
Broach redefined teaser with a promotional clip introducing the Germantown psychiatrist Valerie Augustus of Christian Psychiatrist, who has been accused of, “using riding crops and whips on some of her patients.”
To illustrate the story, Broach held a riding crop in her right hand and gave her left hand a fierce little swat when she said, “riding crop.” It totally happened.
