Two Trump Supporting Newsies are Sacked
On Friday, FTVLive told you that KTTC (Rochester, MN) Reporter Jim Bunner was sent to cover a Trump rally.
He did so while wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat.
The idea that this guy could not figure out, why a a Journalist, this was more than wrong?
On Saturday, FTVLive told you the station fired him and we showed you the internal memo sent out by the News Director:
We also told you on Saturday that KPSP/KESQ (Palm Springs) parted ways with Anchor Kris Long, who posted his support and defense of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh on Facebook.
Kris has been around this business awhile and the idea that he thought giving his opinion on Kavanaugh was ok, we have no idea.
But Long made it much worse when he basically admitted that while in high school, he took his advances on women too far.
He wrote, “One thing for certain, I will never be nominated for the Supreme Court! Were that to happen, I have to admit they might have to enlarge the Senate hearing room to accommodate all the young woman from the mid to late 1960’s who felt I had tried to go a bit too far!”
The station let Long say he “resigned” and he’s hoping to still land a job in the business.
