Irene The Intern Endures Running Coffee Joke On American News Station KTLA (Video)

WATCH: Intern Endures On-Air Local TV News Joke

Seeing news presenters let their hair down and act like regular human beings is always an enjoyable experience - when they're taking the mick out of poor interns like Irene here? Maybe that's a bit much.

As you'll see from the video above, Irene is the new intern at California local news team KTLA. Like a lot of interns, part of her job is getting people coffee.

How do we know this for sure? Well, that's because she was recently heard being asked by newsanchor Richard Demuro for a cup of jo... live on-air.

Instead of brushing off the minor incident, the KTLA team turned it into a running joke over the week, with the original blooper occurring on Wednesday and gags still being made at her / Richard Demero's expense days later.

Whether weatherman Henry DiCarlo takes it too far is a matter of personal opinion, but by us it all looks like good-natured fun.

What makes this especially interesting, however, is that this is the very same Henry DiCarlo who delighted the internet earlier this week with his improptu hissy fit live on-air (see below) - which gives us the impression that our man Henry is definitely one to watch, on-air news show comedy-wise...
