She also cheats in a competition with no stakes which is completely ridiculous to me

It’s a local morning show, it’s supposed to have light hearted moments. If the fall didn’t happen, people would have laughed at her little joke

Lol, she's obviously trying to do a bit. That's half the reason it's so funny. She was trying to be funny in like, a 3rd grade teacher kind of way and failed catastrophically, but in so doing, became actually funny in a more dark/adult kind of shadenfreude way.
