Most clips of reporters that go viral are those that feature them in accidents. So when a fan gets a little too close to Steve Ryan from KTNV, I can see why he would have wanted to avoid him.
The hostility, however, is completely uncalled for.
If Steve wasn’t looking to get on YouTube, it’s safe to say his plan backfired. Even if the guy was drunk, it still would have probably been interesting to hear what he had to say. Maybe he was just trying to talk about MJ, or maybe he was just being an ass. We’ll never know.
Steve Ryan, if you’re reading, remember this clip if you ever get sued for public defamation.
