Senior White House Correspondent Kristen Holmes was midway through an update on newly announced pharmaceutical deals when the whirring of a leaf blower drowned out her voice during a segment that was first reported by DailyMail.com. “I apologize, obviously I’m sure you can hear that since it’s deafening to me,” Holmes told anchor Erica Hill during the segment. “Someone is doing yard work in the White House directly behind me and they chose this moment, right as I was going to talk to you. So, hopefully you’ll be able to hear me without me shouting.” Holmes pressed on for more than two minutes over the din before the sound subsided.
