Sacked in Seattle

After FTVLive posted a story about a tweet made by KOMO (Seattle) Reporter Jonathan Choe, in which he sounded like the PR person for the white nationalist group the Proud Boys, the station fired him.

Choe posted this to his Twitter account be later deleting it.

It appears that Choe decided to attend the rally on his own time and posted the “come meet the guys” tweet to his station-branded account.

KOMO News Director Phil Bruce released a statement saying that Choe is now gone from the Sinclair station.

When the statement was posted by Rich Smith, it wasn’t long before some chimed in.

Clearly, this was not a good look for the station and you have to wonder if Sinclair is bothered at all when painted with this brush.

Choe continues to post about the “homeless crisis” in the Seattle area, but his reporting will no longer be airing on KOMO.

Look for him to pop up on OAN in 3….2…..
