It's believed the clip was recorded in the final moments before the debate got underway, as the media scrum rushed to try to get an interview with Mark Cuban. He's a wealthy investor who's been known to wind up Trump - he ended up sitting in the front row for the debate.

But while most of the reporters kept their cool as they tried to talk to Cuban, some failed spectacularly - and it was all caught on camera.

The reporter whose profanities went viral is named Kimberley Halkett - she's already become a bit of a celebrity online after her swearing was seen by millions.
