Alaska TV Reporter Quits on Air

"Charlo Greene, a reporter at CBS affiliate KTVA in Anchorage quit her job on air last night, telling viewers, “Fuck it. I quit.”"



She reminds me of that hair club for men add.

Cawl? Did they expect that ad to even be understood outside of the 5 boroughs?

And, while I am at it - nice rug, dude. A real hell toupee.

Who needs a real job when you can get rich in the pot industry.

We can all get rich in the pot industry.

Obama's America.

People used to quit pot to save their jobs... Now the leave their jobs to raise pot.

I'm not sure why the anchor lady apologized.

The black girl was quite entertaining.

They have black people in Alaska?

If they are going to have a token weatherperson shouldn't she be an Eskimo chick or something?

I blame it on Alaska. Sarah Palin quit her job too.

A black Alaskan?

If you were looking to be a diversity hire would not Alaska be at the top of ones list. So, pretty smart woman, she did her research well.

Then further, she did more research and discovered which side of the fence is greener. I guess I'd say good for her, except, for that burning bridges thing.

I readily admit, though, that having once done something similar, words formed as fuck it I don't care about all your bullshit are very freeing.

So much for the NAACP philosophy of demanding that news-rooms/tv stations proportionately look like the local demographic they represent..

The reporter's last name is Greene for some LOL irony.

We have many black people in Alaska. And Asians and Pacific Islanders and Hispanics and Alaskan Natives and those of two or more races, and of course the majority guilt ridden white population. The complete melting pot

XRay said...

virgil, good point

Angie, you may well be correct.

Though, based on my just completed short excursion of a cruise, I saw no evidence of such. I walked around, too.

I could look up absolute percentages from the census, but I'm too lazy. Much rather rely on anecdotes... :)

I'm ready to propose marriage to this woman. She rocks!

She's a firebrand. No igloo would be cold with her in it.
