TVB Broadcast Interrupted by Apparent On-Air Dispute? Anchor Zhou Keyin Involved in Heated Exchange
A recent TVB news broadcast was briefly disrupted by what viewers believe was a heated exchange involving anchor Zhou Keyin (Yomi), sparking online speculation. The incident occurred during a report by anchor Zheng Xinian on February 13, 2026 and was captured by eagle-eyed viewers who noticed Zhou Keyin engaged in an animated conversation behind glass in a nearby office.
Screenshots circulating online indicate Zhou Keyin, 30, speaking with colleagues with expressive gestures and a visibly intense demeanor. Netizens have suggested that those involved in the conversation included Lai Zaisan and two other colleagues, with one user speculating that another anchor, Liang Siqi, was likewise present. The incident quickly gained traction on social media, with viewers commenting on the unusual scene unfolding during a live broadcast.
“It almost looked like they were arguing,” one user commented, while others noted Zhou Keyin’s uncharacteristic display of emotion. “Yomi seems to be under a lot of pressure,” another wrote. “Yomi rarely gets this emotional.” Some viewers even described her expression as “angry.”
Following the online buzz, Zhou Keyin reportedly contacted the administrator of the “News Personnel Comprehensive View” Facebook page to clarify the situation. According to the page, she explained that she was simply listening to a colleague speak. She then appeared on the February 13th broadcast of “News Report” wearing the same white shirt and red jacket she was wearing during the reported exchange, professionally delivering the news.
This isn’t the first time a “slip-up” has occurred during a TVB news broadcast. Recent incidents have included anchors accidentally appearing in the wrong segments, making on-air errors, and even forgetting to remove hair accessories. In January, anchor Lai Zaisan was seen on air with a hair clip still in her hair during the broadcast of “Hong Kong Morning.” These moments, while often humorous, have become a talking point among viewers and highlight the challenges of live television.
Zhou Keyin has previously been the subject of media attention, including coverage of a “hair clip incident” and her appearance at a travel event. She joined TVB in July 2018, following a recommendation from Zhang Wencai, and has since become a prominent figure on the network. More information about Zhou Keyin can be found on Wikipedia.
The incident underscores the increasing scrutiny faced by television personalities and the rapid spread of information through social media. As live broadcasts continue to be a staple of news consumption, these moments offer a glimpse behind the scenes and into the often-unseen dynamics of the media industry.
