Give Me a F*cking Break

An expletive, muttered under his breath in a taped segment that mistakenly got on the air, has ended Robert Flores' career as KEYE-TV's sports anchor...

The circumstances surrounding the telecast are still unclear. Flores tapes sports segments for KEYE's 5 to 7 a.m. news the night before. He says what aired about 5:45 Thursday morning was a mistake made during taping Monday night. He doesn't know what happened to the Thursday morning segment he taped Wednesday night or how the Monday tape got on the air Thursday.

You've got to be kidding me - they fired this guy for ONE little f-bomb accidentally aired before sunrise? Give me a break.
