Doctor left mortified after X-rated text message pops up during live TV interview
A UK doctor has been left mortified after inadvertently posting a video with an X-rated text message to his website.
Dr Samuel White appeared on Britain's GB News after he was cleared in court over accusations he spread COVID misinformation online.
The healthcare professional then posted a screen recording of his segment online, failing to realise a dirty WhatsApp message had popped up on the screen.

"As you rest just give a thought to using me for your pleasure. Having me on my knees doing whatever you say... xxx," the message reads, which was sent from a woman named Suzie.
Eagle-eyed Twitter users first noticed the raunchy slip-up and posted the clip online, before Dr White deleted the video and took his website offline.
"Dr Sam White uploaded this video to his website but in his over-eagerness to get his 'message' out, he obviously didn't watch it back first," the Twitter user wrote. "Unlucky Sam, unlucky."
"Oh dear someone forgot to turn their WhatsApp off! This is very funny," one person said.

Another amused user wrote: "Priceless. And posted to his own page without realising it, probably until the page hits counter went ballistic…"
A spokesperson for Dr White told Indy100 his website had been a victim of "hackers" and the clip was not uploaded by him.
"As forewarned in our letter to the NHS CEO on 3 December 2021, Dr Sam has been subject to a smear campaign," PJH Law wrote on Twitter.
"His website and his mobile have been hacked and Twitter trolls have been making defamatory statements. Dr Sam stands strong."

Dr White had been banned from discussing COVID on his social media after he was accused of spreading misinformation by questioning the vaccine and the efficiency of mask wearing.
The General Medical Council's Interim Orders Tribunal imposed restrictions on Dr White's registration as a GP and it was claimed his opinions "may have a real impact on patient safety".
He won a High Court appeal against the judgement and had been discussing the result on GB News in a TV interview.
