Glancing at the Today show while getting ready for work one day this week, I noticed host Karl Stefanovic acting a little odd (well, more so than usual) over a comment by sports reporter Cameron Williams about sunlight poking through a lighter patch in the cloudy sky, referring to it as a corona (technically incorrect of course). There was no joke, but Stefanovic laughed, saying “Nice one Cam” or something like that, and carried on a little.
There’s an old game that TV people sometimes play in which they challenge each other to work a word into their broadcast, and I assume the Today crew were playing. I’m guessing that the word of the day was Corona beer.
