Taiwan TV Anchors Carry On When Earthquake Hits During Newscast

By Kevin Eck 

Nine people have died and at least 900 have been injured in Taiwan’s strongest earthquake in 25 years.

The 7.4 magnitude earthquake caused building collapses, power outages and landslides on the island and triggered tsunami warnings in southern Japan and the Philippines.

An anchor for Taiwan‘s iNews was relaying a message from the country’s earthquake early warning system live when the earthquake hit on Tuesday.
