You Can't Say That On T.V

   If you remember George Carlin, there are in fact 7 words you can't say on T.V. In the interest of modesty (something new for me) I won't list them here. But on a weekend newscast on KFYR in Bismarck, North Dakota, a newscaster ushered 2 of them in rapid succession. A.J Clemente was just about to go on air with his co-anchor, and was apparently having problems pronouncing a name (according to one story I heard), and when he failed again, he said "fuckin shit". The only problem was, his mic was live, and it went out on the air! Play the You Tube video yourself. As of this writing, it's got almost 580 thousand views.
   His co-anchor, obviously stunned and shocked by this, then stumbles and fumbles going into the show. The station heard quite a bit from offended viewers, and suspended, then later fired, A.J. It was, by the way, his FIRST DAY ON THE JOB!
   Now, I've got a friend who's been in the electronic media who says the first thing you're taught is to treat every mic as if it was live. You don''t swear, fart, belch of cough when you're near a microphone. No "fuckin shit".
   I'm guessing A.J won't be getting another shot on T.V any time soon. I'm also wondering if the station will apply to the FCC to change their call letters from KFYR to K-WTF.
