During a recent QVC sales promotion for kid-friendly tablets, one of the hosts - guest Cassie Slane - passed out in the middle of her pitch. Undaunted, her cohost just kept talking, even though camera operators cut away from the studio and showed a stock image of the product instead. Should we be horrified at this guy's lack of concern or totally impressed by his commitment to sales?
Update: Cassie's fine. She posted "Thanks to everyone for their kind words. I am feeling alot better today" on her Facebook page.
