WCBS-TV New York Reporter Fired Over F-Word
As reported by the New York Post, WCBS-TV, Channel 2 New York reporter Arthur Chi'en was fired yesterday after he used the f-word on-air during a 6 a.m. broadcast.
Chi'en was doing a live report in front of a subway station when two men walked up behind him, began chanting, "Opie & Anthony,” held up a sign and gave the finger to the camera.
Chi'en kept talking, but as soon as he finished his report, he spun around and shouted at the intruders: "What the f--- is your problem, man?" The expletive went out over the air and now Chi’en is out of a job.
