How should a TV news reporter report news? Should the reporter become a part of the action or should he or she be a dispassionate observer just presenting events as they have unfolded? This is an important question for journalism in general but let us ignore it for a while and watch how Amin Hafeez of Geo News TV, Pakistan reported from Lahore on the non-availability of tickets for a Cricket match in Lahore.

Pakistan Super League is Pakistan's own version of IPL and its final is to be held at the Gaddhafi Stadium in Lahore on March 5. Ticket prices ranged from Rs 500 to Rs 12,000 and Hafeez was reporting on the non-availability of the Rs 500 tickets for the fans in Lahore. Hafeez has been known to become a part of the action himself and this video is no different.

We leave you to see the video in this tweet yourself to watch how Hafeez not only reports but also entertains:
