A guy who makes mistakes like this needs to work behind the camera instead of in front of it.

I think people should simply choose to ignore the holiday if they don’t like it. If you aren’t thinking about something, you aren’t going to say something about it.

He should be embarrassed, since it’s Martin Luther King Boulevard day.

Does anyone here remember the ON AIR skit Richard Pryor did with Chevy Chase during the first season of Saturday Night Live? They were trading nicknames for each other’s race....funny stuff.

It ended when Chase said, very strongly and forcefully, the “N” word, to b which Pryor replied, “Dead Honky!” Uproarious laughter, and generally people were not all that offended. Back then, SNL was a mere mouthpiece for the left....they poked fun at everyone.

Also, children generally were not watching tv at that hour.

LOL! A latino!

Schadenfreude....

BTW, maybe the term can now be “wind”. My neighborhood last year, after 40 years of being the pinnacle of PC before it was cool, changed a teeny road name from “Coon Hunt” to “April Wind” because it was offensive and they were sure it was intentionally racist. Again, in a commie planned town that thinks it’s the pinnacle of human superiority and has since inception.

Yes it’s such a big incident I hope he is destroyed and let’s pass new federal, state and local laws and spend billions on this. Maybe counseling for those who heard it.

Give me a frigging break.

If he's supposed to tell the weather, then why even mention MLK day? What could that possibly have to do with a weather forecast? If he just gave us the highs and lows and told us when it's going to rain, he'd avoid a lot of trouble and aggravation.

It's been years since I consulted the television for a weather forecast anyhow. There's more information about the weather on the Internet then you'd ever want to know and now I even get it on my smartphone.

Me too. You say it fast, and it can happen. Simple mistake. But the left doesn’t see it that way.
