Reporter Goes On Wild Rant About His Messy Marriage While Covering LA Protests
Well, someone's sleeping on the couch indefinitely.
An aerial reporter for a local Los Angeles news station decided to get a little too personal while covering the 'No Kings' protests in Southern California on Saturday.
Stu Mundel of Fox 11 was covering the demonstrations from a helicopter when — about an hour into the two-hour livestream, while the aircraft was traveling to a location with more protesters — he decided to interact with commenters in the stream's live chat.
And it seems that someone's remark prompted him to get TMI about his love life.
'I am married… I am legally married. I am legally married. That's about the only way you can really say it. I am legally married, but I am not looking now at all,' he revealed. 'I, uh, just had a bunch of debacles with my personal life.'
'I got nothing right now … trying to find myself and be happy,' Mundel said later. 'I'm being serious about that.'
'I want to be beholden to no one at this moment,' he said after a long pause.
'Do I get lonely? Of course, of course, but I got cats,' the journalist concluded with a rueful laugh before deciding to refocus on his job.
It seems that Mundel didn't give a damn that people were listening to his rogue comments, because earlier in the broadcast, he assured everyone that he was aware his mic was on.
'If you're going to be joining me a little bit later on and you don't catch the beginning, you're going to be, like, 'This guy doesn't know his mic is open,'' Mundel said at the very beginning of the livestream. 'I know my mic is open.'
When clips of Mundel's rant about his failing marriage made their way to X, formerly Twitter, some locals pointed out that Mundel has a tendency to go wildly off-script in pretty amusing ways.
That's Stu! He's a legend here in California. Always fun with Stu when there's a car chase! Love him!

X users who were less aware of Mundel's casual approach toward the news were also intrigued.
