CBC reporter Megan Batchelor received unwanted attention from a man who kissed her on the cheek and took a selfie while she was doing a live hit for Vancouver's supper-hour television newscast.

The unwelcome physical contact happened at the Squamish Valley Music Festival on Friday evening during the 6 p.m. newscast.

Batchelor says the assault was rough on her.

"As much as I'm not physically hurt, I'm rattled," she said. "I was just doing my job when this happened and I feel like he deliberately tried to interfere with my ability to do my job just for a laugh."
