We get these video time from time where a news anchor is just seems off a little bit, that is the case with the anchor from Albany...

Anchor Heather Kovar works at Channel 6 in Albany New York and viewers took to Twitter to voice their concern over her most recent segment. As you will see in the video shared on Twitter, Heather seems to be very out of it. Heather begins with a rant about the heat, slurs some words and then gets her co-anchor and Meteorologist's name wrong.

After seeing the newscast, many viewers took to social media to voice their concern for Heather. Some thought she was drunk or on drugs, others could just tell something was off with her.

There is a lot to this story now, Heather came out and said she was very tired after having to pull a double shift at the station. Now, Heather has quit and suggests that there is some issues with the workplace at that station.

But this is where things start to get weird, Heather said she quit but the station said she was suspended that night after the broadcast.

After seeing the video, people are mostly concerned for her and want to make sure the local anchor is in a good place.

Here is more on the story and more from Heather:

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
