    He was giving the anchorman that was flipping him **** on the air "the finger". The producer just mistakenly "cut" to him while he was doing it.

    And because of this, he will be fired.
    The question is, who DVR's the news? Why would someone have this? The news station isn't going to post this video....or maybe they would:rolleyes:
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    Reminds me of the time a young female reporter on the local news in my area dropped an "F" bomb and didn't realize she was still on the air.No she didn't get fired and neither should the weatherman in the video.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    So a local reporter wearing a Florida Gators hat to a Arkansas Football press conference should really NOT be fired??? :eek:Did you hear about that one...Bobby Patrino was so bent out of shape this reporter wearing a Florida hat, she was ultimately fired from the local newspaper.

    If she got fired for that, she should've mailed him the hat.

    Guy named Sandy Becker had a lock on kids tv in the New York City area when I was a kid. I recently saw a bunch of old, grainy, B&W outtakes from his show. Plenty of F-bombs and stuff like him sitting there having a smoke, and plugging a snack of some kind by saying "Kids, eat enough of these and your eyes will fall out." It was the greatest.

    She should ebay the hat. Probably get $6K for it.
