There was a post here recently about a Boston anchor taking offense to her
pregnancy being announced on the air by her co-anchor.  WMTW has two
pregnant anchors, Elisa Boxer and Marnie McLean, and they are doing a series
this week using their own experiences to cover issues of interest to
expectant parents.  That alone is a typical health series common on local
news.  Nothing unusual or objectionable about that.

Dave:
I think you have to consider the time frame, when Nat & Chet conceived  Anchor Baby it was 20+ years ago, also perhaps all members of their family had not been informed.  It really wasn't up to Tom Ellis to break the news.
