A US reporter went viral this week for asking Russian president Vladimir Putin a question that made him very uncomfortable, then proceeded to not let him dodge it.
Rachel Scott, an ABC News correspondent, was at the press conference that followed Putin's first in-person meeting with Joe Biden since he became president of the US.
After asking the Russian president a question relating to cyberattacks, Scott asked for "a quick followup".

"For my question for you Mr President: What are you so afraid of?"
