VIDEO: Russian news anchor flips off reporter for some reason

Being a news anchor seems like a stressful job because you have to read off a teleprompter and, uh, say the words you just read. So you can see why this Russian news anchor might give his reporter the finger for some reason. In a hilarious fashion.

I particularly enjoy the gusto with which he gave the finger. As if to say, “Here it is, baby. Soak it all in.”

However, it’s entirely possible that, in Russian vernacular, giving someone the finger is a sign of utmost respect. Or a sign that vodka is delicious. So many possible rational explanations.
