Re: Anchor fired on first day for cursing on air
Him cursing apparently caused both him and his co-anchor to have strokes in the next 30 seconds, too, given their garbled speaking.
I feel bad for him. On the bright side, he's very attractive so he has that going for him.

I think the bigger story is that the only Asian in Bismarck, ND works as a news anchor. Progress!

Dumb. It looks like he didn't even realize he was on the air yet.

Re: Anchor fired on first day for cursing on air
Seems he cannot speak too well either. Perhaps he's retarded.

Re: Anchor fired on first day for cursing on air
I've been doing it wrong all these years. Drop an F bomb, and get on the Today Show. It's crazy that something like this, which is actually pretty common, especially in local news, got so much attention.
This is still my favorite. They cut her cursing out at the end, because it was spanish news, but as funny as the video is I love that she speaks perfect English as well.

the best part of this video is when it goes back to the newsroom and their reaction.

Re: Anchor fired on first day for cursing on air
The Jenga Tower of Pisa was staged as well
The structure is still pretty impressive though.

Re: Anchor fired on first day for cursing on air
Some of these videos are hilarious. I could never cut it as a news anchor. I'd be screwing up all the time.
