Her co-anchor Errol Barnett's side-eye is subtle, but piercing.
In a segment about clashes between police and protesters in Ferguson Monday night, CNN International anchor Rosemary Church asks: "Why not, perhaps, use water cannons?"
And her co-anchor Errol Barnett's response:
"Wait, what....?"
"Did that just happen?"
"Is this real life?"
Twitter users were swift in reminding Church about the history of using water cannons to quell civil rights protesters in America:
I just wanted you to see what a water cannon was. Perhaps you would like to be in front of one yourself. @rosemaryCNN
