Social media has forced many broadcasters to file stories from various locations in-between broadcast hits in order to keep viewers informed.

“You realize I got called for a crazy person talking to herself,” an officer told Schiller while she was doing a Facebook live follow up on local landslides.

She thought he was kidding at first.

“Is this a joke? No.”

The officer responded to a 911 call and quickly realized it was Schiller.

“That might be the best thing I’ve heard definitely all day, maybe all month,” she said during her Facebook live.
