A Minnesota news anchor has found herself in the unfortunate position of becoming a story after her erratic behavior on a live newscast that has some people wondering if she was drunk on the air.

Annie Stensrud, the anchor for small market KEYC-TV, the CBS/Fox affiliate in Mankato, MN (Market #198), slurred her words and was visibly out of sorts as she read the evening’s top stories on the station’s 10 p.m. newscast last Sunday night.

Annie Stensrud, the anchor for small market KEYC-TV, the CBS/Fox affiliate in Mankato, MN (Market #198), slurred her words and was visibly out of sorts as she read the evening’s top stories on the station’s 10 p.m. newscast last Sunday night.

At approximately 3-and-a-half minutes into the broadcast, the station faded directly from video to a commercial. When the newscast returned after the commercial break, Stensrud was gone, and the station’s weatherman and sports anchor completed the show.
