Viewers could see the situation unravel in real time … the camera suddenly started shaking as anchor Tony Dokoupil kept reading from the teleprompter … before stopping mid sentence and asking if the crew member was okay.
Dokoupil quickly told viewers there was a medical emergency and they were taking a break, while he and another crew member could be heard urgently saying they were calling for a doctor.
The broadcast then cut back to CBS’ New York studio, where Matt Gutman was standing by and told viewers they’d be right back.
We’ve reached out to CBS for comment … so far, no word back.
