There's so much going on in that vid (some of which might be my imagination)...
First, he previously tells her how she, her husband, and child are blessed, and she says nothing. Then he asks her if she thanks the lord, to which she replies a sheepish, "Yeah". It's only when he presses her that she comes out and admits to him that she's an atheist. Lastly (and this is what could be my imagination), it seems like he kind of rears back while saying, "Oh you are. Well alright, then don't thank the lord".
I agree she handled it well. I'd have been tempted to respond with how mad I was at the lord for wiping out the school and killing little children. The good news is that with an ever increasing population of non-believers, reporters probably should stop assuming that everyone they interview is a theist lest they wind up inserting their foot in their mouth.
