Newsreader pelted with eggs and yoghurt

EGGING has long been a favoured form of messy political protest - but in this case the addition of yoghurt gave the stunt a uniquely Greek flavour.
News anchor Panagiotis Bourchas was left dripping in the stuff after protesters rushed his studio during a live broadcast, bombarding him with volley after volley of food. Viewers in Greece watched as his show - captured in the video below - ground to a halt as the mob burst in shortly after 9pm on Friday. Mr Bourchas is mid-interview when a woman is heard shouting off camera, before a yoghurt pot sails into view and explodes over the host.         –GN
