Gone in Tampa

Back in November of last year, FTVLive told you about the racist comments made by WTSP Anchor Rich Fields.

On Nov. 21st, FTVLive wrote:

“During some “happy talk” Fields makes the commnet, while talking about co-anchor Jabari Thomas, saying that if police checked his license, they might see he has a felony.

What?

Why would you say that about your co-worker?

The fact that Thomas is Black and Fields is white, some took the inappropriate comment as racist as well.”

After that, Fields was off the air, and the station never addressed the issue publicly.

It appears that Tegna has let Fields “resign” and he posted to social media he will now be doing motivational speaking.

You can’t make this shit up.
