Winter Olympics TV host admits drinking before slurring report

An Australian Winter Olympics TV presenter has apologized for slurring her words during a live broadcast, admitting she had consumed alcohol before going on-air.

The television host faced criticism after her incoherent report about iguanas went viral online. Initially, she attributed her slurred speech to the cold weather, high altitude, and skipping dinner.

In a subsequent statement, the presenter admitted to "having a drink" before the broadcast and issued an apology for the incident. The Winter Olympics organizers have not yet commented on the matter.
