Violent storms had swept through parts of France, Greece and Italy over the weekend, causing flash floods and landslides. Mantikos, however, struggled to get his report done as a pig persistently chased around and eventually bit him.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cGood morning, we have an issue. Giorgos can you hear me, we have a pig here that has been chasing us since this morning \u2026 folks sorry I can\u2019t stand [still] because it\u2019s biting me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The extremely amusing incident was aired live on ANT1 TV\u2019s <em>Good Morning Greece<\/em> show. The show\u2019s host Giorgos Papadakis along with his co-hosts couldn\u2019t hold back their laughter as the reporter darted about and eventually out of camera range.<\/p>\n<p>Papadakis concluded by advising\u00a0Mantikos to repair his relationship with the pig. He then went on to apologise to the audience for the laughter in the studio.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cLazos, because it\u2019s a tragic issue and we are counting our wounds in Kineta try and work things out with the female pig.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\t\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\n\t\tn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\t\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n\t\tdocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('init', '247107802609931');\n\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v4.0\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pig Chases Journalist While Reporting On Live TV | Image: CNN A news report is a serious business, however, a Greek television news report took a hilarious turn when a large pig chased the journalist on live TV.
