Somebody's Getting Fired (Update)

Update: As predicted Emily Austen has been fired, 

A Fox Sports Florida Reporter has/or is going to be fired from her job. 

Fox Sports Florida Reporter Emily Austen was appearing on an Internet talk show, where the guys think it's really cool to drop the f-bomb over and over again.

But Austen decided to carpet bomb the Facebook live broadcast with racist comments that were so bad, they would have made Donald Trump proud. 

Deadspin reports that on the 35-minute long broadcast, Austen said a number of terrible things. She called Kevin Love a “little bitch” multiple times, said she “didn’t even know that Mexicans were that smart,” talked about how the “Chinese guy is always the smartest guy in math class,” and after one of the gibbering morons next to her said Jews were stingy, she told stories about “the way I used to talk to the Jews in Boca” when she was a waitress.

She said that after dissing a Jew at the restaurant she worked at, she was fired from her job.

That won't be her last firing. 

Fox Sports Florida senior vice-president Steve Tello released the following statement:

We were made aware that Emily Austen appeared in a social media video unaffiliated with FOX Sports in which she made insensitive and derogatory comments. She was not speaking on behalf of FOX Sports, nor do we condone any of the statements she made in the video. Emily has been advised that her comments were unacceptable, and she is not scheduled to appear on any upcoming FOX Sports Florida or FOX Sports Sun broadcasts.

You can watch the video below. Skip to the 24 minute mark to watch Austen in all her racist glory.
