Ex-Dallas Anchor In The Soup In Alabama

Uncle Barky reports that Michael Scott–the ex-NBC5 anchor who was jumped on-air here by a lizard, creating a YouTube sensation–has lost his job as primary news anchor at a TV station in Huntsville, Ala. Seems that Scott, who’s black, referred to his producer, who’s also black, as a “negro” during a commercial break. When the producer objected, Scott called him the “n”-word, and wound up canned.

    Note to the producer: you live in the Deep South. You should have thicker skin than that by now. Grow some and don’t be such a puss about some good-natured name calling.

    You would have thought the producer was a cracker.

    I find the word “cracker” offensive when used in reference to a Caucasian.

    Brings to mind something Russ Martin said — “I thought you could use that word if you are one.”

    I think Michael should just go back in there, chill them n****** out and wait for the Wolf who should be coming directly.
