CTV Reporter Becomes Ill On Air During Live Broadcast

It thankfully doesn't happen often, but it did on an Edmonton 6 PM newscast Sunday night. CTV reporter Jessica Robb had just started doing a live stand-up when her words became jumbled, she had difficulty delivering her copy and she was forced to admit she had suddenly been taken ill - and had to throw back to the newsroom. At the end of this brief appearance, it looked like she wasn't steady and may have been about to fall over. 

Fortunately, the station says she's doing better but there's no word yet on when she might be back on air or what exactly happened in those few tense moments on air. You can see the incident here
