The news reporter wanted a feel good puff piece regardless of how inappropriate it is. The interviewee wanted to report the actual news.

    The company that owns that NBC affiliate wanted a feel good puff piece. I doubt she had a say in the matter.

    Was it live? Probably not. That means they left it in on purpose.

    Yes. But if they aired it, they aired it on purpose. Clips like that are rarely actually live. So they made a show of not continuing to give him airtime, but they gave him enough to get his message out - twice.
