Fired Philly Reporter Resurfaces (Wait Till You See Where?)
/Remember almost a year ago when FTVLive told you about WPHL (Philly) Reporter Colleen Campbell was arrested outside a Philadelphia comedy club?
The police were called to the club and she insulted one officer over and over again, while the even-tempered Philly cop tried to just let her leave.
But, Campbell would not go, she spit at a guy and then told the cop, “I work at a fucking news station, motherfucker.”
After her arrest, Campbell said that she was, "ruined and embarrassed."
Her tirade and arrest was all caught on video and it wasn't long before the station cut ties with her.
“When I came home, I called my producer to talk about why I was absent,” Campbell told Philadelphia Magazine. “I didn’t realize a video was out. I found out about it later because HR called me and said I was being terminated. They said there’s a video. I said, ‘What video?’”
“That’s not me or how I talk or act or anything at all,” she said. “I don’t know what to do. I feel ruined and embarrassed for me and my family.”
Well guess who has resurfaced at another station?
Campbell has landed the weekend weather job at WDTV in Clarksburg, WV.
Clarksburg, WV. is a long way from Philadelphia, PA, but it proves once again, no matter what you do, you can always find a job in TV news.
Here is a screen shot of her bio, which mentions WPHL, but does not mention her arrest:
