This guy had a short news career..

I just read a story online, about a TV anchor in ND, who has been fired, for using the dreaded " F Bomb", on his very first day on the air!

Supposedly, this was the anchor's first broadcast of an evening weekend newscast, and the man didn't realize his mike was on, when he uttered, audably "Fuckin..Shit".

The next thing.. the station and the now former anchor, issued an apology, and the anchor was immediately fired.

This has to be the first time I've heard of an anchor being fired on his first day, for using profanity.

Did anyone else hear about this?
 
Anchors have to be very careful what they say on the air, as they never know when their mikes are on.

A few months ago, at my favorite station, WPVI in Philly, they were trying to do a weather report, when weatherman Adam Joseph didn't have his mike on. Lead weather girl Cecily Tynan clearly uttered the word "Moron", which could also be heard on the mike. A short time later, Jim Gardner discussed how he received letters saying that Ms Tynan had called Mr Joesph what Gardner referred to as "An Insulting Word". Gardner tried to deny it, saying "We don't do that here, we are a family". Ms Tynan was not sanctioned in any way for the "Moron" comment.

Hopefully the guy who mistakenly uttered the F word will be given a second chance. That is an unfortunate incident.
 
An old DJ friend of mine once referred to a local conservative, anti-civil rights Baptist minister as a "bastard" The copy read, "pastor" and my buddy just muffled his voice and coughed a little as he spoke. It was a riot.
 
If you have a job like a tv news anchor or a radio dj, why would you swear at all while you're "at work"? It shows a lack of thinking.
 
People may remember how NY news anchor Ernie Anastos once said "Keep Fucking That Chicken". Well, I just caught another swear word from old Ernie.

He was describing about where people go to buy momentos of old Shea Stadium after it closed., and instead of saying the station he worked at. "FoxNY.,com". Mr Anastos clearly said "FoxNY.COCK. " LOL! Someone caught this, and posted it on Youtube.
 
Back in the sixties in a televised college football game, a running back broke loose for about an 80-yd touchdown run. The commentator doing the play-by-play got so excited that he blurted out, "Look at that son of a bitch run."
 
T'aint nuthin' compared to ol WABC NY whiskey breath weatherman Tex Antoine::

""On November 24, 1976, his weather spot came up just after a report of a violent rape of a five year old girl. Tex, thereupon quipped: "With rape so predominant in the news lately, it is well to remember the words of Confucius: 'If rape is inevitable, lie back and enjoy it.'" ""
 
Here is a better link..................................

Go to: You Tube and look up North Dakota News Anchor.

I remember that. That particular little faux pas made it's way into Kermit Schaffer's "The Bloopy Awards" album.

Another item from that album featured Maury Amsterdam doing a telethon. The older members here surely remember him as Buddy Sorrell on the Dick Van Dyke Show. He was obviously very tired when he said, "Thank you....We have Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kelly donating five dollars....oh wait, there's a note here...tell Julie to go to bed. Okay, Julie will go to bed for five dollars.....oops, sorry."
 
DAJT, I cannot thank you enough,...... I had no idea about Kermit Schaffer,.... or his studious following of on-air bloopers. (I listened to all of 'em) But it hit a chord. When I was a little kid in the 50"s, my dad was a DJ (early rock'n'roll. eh?) He came home one day with an old 45 disc (I have to specify "disc" because around my house, '45' has another meaning, too,.... heh heh) The old vinyl was titled, "Pardon My Blooper." It was a sound collage of radio bloopers from recent years - a couple of them were on Schaffer's website,.... so I guess he had something to do with it. It was hilarious,..... both sides, too. My dad put it on the turntable every time he had friends over for a party. I was about 6, but I could totally appreciate what I was hearing,.......... This info sort of closes a circle. Thanks.
 
Glad to help, Piper. Kermit Schaffer had several albums out, but The Bloopy Awards was the only one we had. There was classic stuff.

Radio Announcer: "...That's the new, weather, and sports. And now I think I'll take a leak out the window to see if it's freezing outside." :shock:
:laughhard:

Game Show Contestant (female): "I have children ages two, three, five, and six."
Game Show Host (male): "Well what happened to four?"
Game Show Contestant: "That's the year we got our television set."
:bwahaha:

Announcer (whispering to the audience only): "(psst..the next WHAT'S MY LINE guest is a mattress maker.")
Contestant: "Is your product used by one sex over another?"
:rowfull:

I just read a poll online about this situation. The majority of those polled, believe that Mr Clemente deserves a second chance. I happen to agree. My view is.. people make mistakes. If they apologize and atone for then, they shouldn't be held responsible for something like this for the rest of their lives. I think he should either be hired back by the station in ND, or hired by another station, in the short term.
