Recently, Germany was hit by a flood, causing many casualties. This week, Susanna Ohlen came to the German town of Badminster Aifer to report on the disaster. Subsequently, Germany's RTL TV station published an article titled "Cleaning after the flood: RTL TV anchor lends a helping hand to Badminster Aifle", saying that Susanna was involved in the local cleanup.
On Thursday, after a local passerby posted the video he shot online, the 39-year-old female reporter's fraud was made public.
video shows that Oren is wearing a blue shirt and boots and a hat on her head, and she bent over to pick up some dirt and spread the mud on her clothes, surrounded by flood-destroyed houses and ruins.

Then she bent down again, this time she wiped the soil on her face. As she turned to face her photography team, the video could be heard laughing in the background.
The TV program production team said: "This reporter's approach clearly violates the principles of news and our own standards. Therefore, after we learned about this, she was given a leave of absence on Monday."
reported that Oren has been working at RTL since 2008 and has participated in TV programs such as "Good Night RTL", "Good Morning Germany" and "Point 12".
