TJ Holmes and Amy Robach are defending David Muir after he was slammed for using clothes pins presumably to get a more flattering fit on the fire jacket he wore.
This all happened while Muir was reporting on the deadly Palisades fire in Los Angeles. As he turned to point at the burned out remains of a home, clothes pins could be seen cinching in the fire jacket he wore.
He's received a ton of backlash for appearing vain in the face of tragedy. But Holmes and Robach see it differently based on their experience.
'The perspective might be missing if you're just reading tweets,' Holmes said during Friday's episode of their podcast, Does This Make Me Look Fat?
'The perspective might be missing in that, often times – and I don't know if he does – travel with a producer or even a wardrobe person whose job is – you might be looking at your phone, getting the latest, looking at notes or doing something, and
people are pulling and plugging things onto you, the mic and the IFB [in-ear monitor] and all these things,' Holmes explained.
'You don't even know what's happening to you, and someone could've made the decision of 'Let me do this with the jacket.' We don't know.'
