The BBC World was at TED to tape a special panel discussion on the media when it experienced technical difficulties and had to halt the taping a couple of minutes into the event. As the BBC moderator struggled to fill the dead air while the problem was being fixed, a loud heckler in the audience spoke up and grabbed everyone’s attention. Once the audience realized it was Williams, he was encouraged to take the stage.
Although Williams has a microphone in this video, his voice didn’t carry very far to where I was sitting in the auditorium. I can now tell that I misheard at least one thing he said. I wrote that he made a joke about Apple’s new iWhy? product. But in the video, it’s clear he actually said iWife. I like my version better.
That was intriguing… So I watched. I laughed. I seriously spewed potato chips all over my keyboard. But I’ve been told by my wife that they aren’t liable. So just watch the video and be warned.
