Sky News are in trouble for a live report where the reporter 'rifled through' passenger belongings before saying "We probably shouldn't be doing this" http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28405047

That is already being discussed in the Sky News thread.

I am not sure where you are getting the phrase 'rifled through'. It isn't used in the BBC article you linked to and the video only shows him picking up a couple of items from a suitcase. No rifling involved.

I felt that Fergal Keane's report from tonight's BBC News at Ten had showed an extraordinary insight into the real threat of being around the streets of Ukraine following this plane crash that is still very fraught with lots of tension and fear.
The clip of the soldier showing the afraid young man being forced to move along before something potentially fatal happens in front of him and most notably the bystander and the BBC film crew themselves.

'Rifling through' was the phrase used on twitter when I became aware of the story (it may have been the BBC headline, it may not have been).
I didn't realise it was being discussed on the generic thread, I assumed the whole reason a specific thread had been created was do that we could discuss the story specifically, hence me posting in the thread.
I see the reporter has since issued an apology and has realised he crossed a line when reporting live. I think it's interesting, worth posting and worth discussing. I've seem at least one very well known Sky News presenter tweeting in support of his apology.

I think you could probably argue it either way which thread it should have been posted in. My posting wasn't meant as a criticism. I was posting to let you know that there was already a number of posts on the subject more than anything.
This was meant as a criticism. You shouldn't post things found on anonymous Twitter accounts without attribution. People might have thought you were writing about something you had seen happen on Sky News rather than something you had heard about second hand via medium where accuracy takes second place (at best) to the challenge of posting in 140 characters for some reason.

Ok, it's fine 
I've just re-researched it, and 'rifles through' was used by three people on twitter I follow, none of whom actually work for Sky (though one does I think work for ITN). That's why the quotes came in - not my words.
Never mind. It's a forum, for discussion, we've discussed it, that's what this place is for.
Returning to the subject though, this really should be a lesson for all reporters, not to get caught up in the moment when live on air.
