A reporter for an NBC affiliate in Baltimore who inserted a racist remark into a video clip of FOX News' John Gibson and posted it on YouTube is no longer employed by the station, FOXNews.com has learned.
The offensive video clip was doctored so that the viewer heard Gibson using the words "bright blue scrotum" in reference to Attorney General Eric Holder, rather than to a defining characteristic of a monkey on the loose in Seattle.
The video circulated rapidly on blogs and news Web sites Thursday and was not corrected for hours.

Nice to see that even Lefties are subject to racial PC. The reporter deserved it because it was journalistic malfeasance.

Even more insane was when the video was corrected and an apology issued, the loony left KEPT ragging about it.

The reporter was indeed fired but tell that to the MSM, they’re going to run with the story anyway.

What is sad it the environment that has been created that made him believe he would get away with it. What was he thinking.

So, in trying to portray Gibson as a racist, he really outed himself as one.

He’ll probably get hired as a commentator by MSNBC.
To: Red in Blue PA
The meme from the MSM will be that Gibson is vindictive and that this is characteristic of FOX news types.
