Natasha didn't deserve to be fired. Imagine getting fired just cause you zoned out for like 5 seconds. That seems like a major overreaction by her bosses.
it's like to *talk back* to your teacher
The cursing ones are indeed silly
they just didnt want to offer her a longer stint on-air.
Neither did Danyell or Dan rather
Just to play Devils advocate... I think if she wasn't freelancing at the time, she may have been given a 2nd chance.
The irony is that a bad five seconds can cost a journalist their job, while others get away with years of barely-concealed bias and intellectual dishonesty.
If you are a Leftie journos, or lean the same way as management, you don't get fired at all.
@@dhenderson1810they are more likley than righties
@@dhenderson1810no explanation for any of right wing media, then?
@@dhenderson1810so don lemmon isn’t a lefty? you make no sense
Don stepped directly on the toes of new management, that's why after years of breathlessly reporting on some of the biggest hoaxes of this millennium he finally got fired. @@VesusSheist
I am SHOCKED that you didn’t include Tex Antoine.
Tex Antoine was a weatherman in the NYC market and in 1976 came on the air right after a story about a rape. He quipped: “ with rape, so predominant in the news lately, it is well to remember the words of Confucius: if rape is inevitable, lie back and enjoy it”
The victim in the rape story was an EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRL.
Some of them do stuff so strange it's like an occult dare. That guy sounds off but some go totally out of character.
Wow. That's disgusting. Were there consequences for him?
Thankfully it only was an attempted crime.
But Tex Antoine didn't really suffer much consequences at first, took years until he was fired.
When I tell you I gasped
That's disgusting
Honestly out of all these ppl on this list, I feel the most bad for Natasha Exelby. She made an honest mistake by zoning out. When we watched that part on live tv for the first time, we would’ve just assumed that it was part of the broadcast to add some humor. Instead of just firing her on the spot, they should’ve either rolled with it or pulled her aside afterwards and simply told her not to zone out like that in the future. Natasha Exelby is only human like us, she’s not a robot.
For real, everyone likes a fun little humanizing moment from the reporters who are usually all business otherwise. It's why so many people love seeing the anchors who have pets and all their shenanigans while working from home during quarantine.
You are at work. Not at home, she should have been studying what she was going to say next when the camera came back on her. Professionalism is a must for her type of work. She isn't the cashier or receptionist.

@@susannpatton2893 do you even know what being human means? Or even honest mistakes?
@doomsday3659 yes. I'm not on tv, if I were, I'd be making sure I'm paying attention
@@susannpatton2893 ok, but not everyone is that lucky. Sometimes our minds just wander off completely.
The lady with the pen was so genuine and relatable, it was a cute natural reaction, her employers should’ve had better common sense and worked with her reaction, I’m sure anyone that watched that live thought it was a funny blooper caught on air. It’s not like she was picking her nose or something so embarrassing, her termination imo was a joke.
Should have been reading what she would say next when the camera cane back on her, not goofing off. It's not the receptionist or assistant.
@@susannpatton2893 Wow you havent made a honest and innocent mistake at work ? Have you? I hope they fire you without listening when you do.
@@susannpatton2893Not enough to get fired, though.
@susannpatton2893
All of those who read your comment that are currently a receptionist or an assistant appreciate the respect.
The person at the console (I forget what they're called), who pushes the button to change the camera back to her, should have given a countdown, 3, 2, 1. That used to be the way it was done in my short stint as a master control operator for a local TV station back in the mid 90's, before computers took over. Surely they have something similar in this "advanced" age of electronics. It sounds to me like the boss screwed up and the anchor lady got fired for it.
Natasha Exelby didn't deserve that. You think someone would've gave her a reminder they were about to be on air again, but nope. They just let her suffer the consequences
I agree. Its not like she cursed ir was saying something offensive
ikr. Although, her reactions are unfitting for a supposedly confident anchor. She didn't play it right as well. All would probably be forgiven if she just laughed or played it off.
It's all good though for Natasha Exelby as she still works in journalism but with a different Australian news company.
I know this as i'm an Aussie who watches the news and see's her the news here at 5pm
Somewhat endearing, I thought...
Yeah it was kind of funny too. it wasn't cringe or offensive.
Don Lemmon didn't ruin his career with a single incident. His career was ruined by a series of cuts and the fact that he is a massive jerk.
Too bad he didn't take Nikki Haley with him. I was proud of her for taking down those flags, now she's just another Trump butt kisser. Come on Nikki, you can do better than that.
Nah it was because he called out racism from a vindictive wanna be Trump (who made actual racism comments) and CNN was too busy playing softball with certain parties and served him up as a compromise. The fact that people act like he made some sexist comment and got axed from that is just ridiculous.
@@aceb4634 Two things are equally true. He is a massive jerk and he called racism in a smug way- because he is a massive jerk.
It was long over due. You can tell just by his appearance.
@@royal_vita5329 That hands on the hip and tilted head body language says it all. "I know more than you do". I really can't stand that condescending thing. Surprised Poppy didn't stick a pen in his eye.
The sad thing about Dan Rather's career getting tanked due to spreading fake news...is that the media members get promoted for doing this today.
Particularly on Fox News
Well they did put him on MSNBC where fake news is their specialty.
Exactly, look at Rachel Maddow - she's been spreading fake news for a while now.
@@robtrawick1 He had no association with Fox News. This was the mainstream networks, he worked mostly for CBS in particular, who usually get away with their constant lies and deceptions because their on the Far Left, so get your facts and ideas straight..
@@robtrawick1 I don't watch Fox News, but you are the type of clown who mocks Fox but watches MSNBC, CNN, or one of the big 3. Clown you are, as Yoda would say.
Poor Natasha, ended up on a list of racist, sexist, and other prejudicial trash because of a crew mistake that wasn't her fault.
💩💩
It's sad how cruel the world is.
I dont get it? She was playing with her pen. And got fired? Can someone explain this
@@saveThe90s88 The pen was a racist, so guilty by association?
@@saveThe90s88they probably didn't think it was professional or something.
F*ck it, WE'LL DO IT LIVE!
-Bill O'Reilly having a mental breakdown
Well, he didn't actually say that on air though. On the other hand, he did fabricate all kinds of false stories about being in war zones.
Natasha definitely didn't deserve to be fired! Like all the people on this list did some very heinous things but the poor girl was just playing with her pen 🖊 😕
Agreed. Natasha at worst should have only got a short suspension.
@@americangiant1003 Exactly 💯 anybody knows what happened with her though I'm curious 🤔
@@benjaminmurray455 I think as a global society in America and Worldwide I think these TV Hosts/Anchors/Presenters when they screw up live on the air has gotten the immediate ax was way too harsh.
In a few cases such as Billy Bush, it should been only a 60 day suspension. Meanwhile as was the case of Natasha, it only deserved a suspension. Each of these screw ups are a case-case basis and does not mean they should lose their jobs on the spot.
@@americangiant1003 Yeah sometimes we demand perfection from others to the point where it stripes us of our compassion and understanding
Natasha Exelby has since bounced back and now works for the channel 10 news team
Exelby wasn't exaclty fired though, she was a freelancer and was just not rostered for live appearances. She was, by her own accounts, offered production shifts by the ABC. She also didn't destroy her carreer, seeing how she went on to work for Network 10, on air, afterwards and runs her own PR firm.
Good to see she bounced back. Sounds like an industrious, persistent lady.
How did Don Imus not make this list?
Exactly, that’s what I said
Why didn't Al Sharpton make the list for falsey accusing a State Alderman of raping Tawana Brawley!? Why does he still have a job!!!!??? DISGUSTING!!!
I don't think his career ended
Perhaps they aren't technically considered network hosts?
He was briefly suspended, but made a good apology and actually met with the girls team to personally apologize and get to know them. His career continued just fine after.
I feel bad for Natasha Exelby. My parents and I used to giggle every time a live newscaster made a little flub, but not in a mean way. More like laughing with them. Hers was just an innocent error anyone could make, and her reaction was amusingly priceless. :)
One guy lies straight up in a report. Gets suspended for a for few months. The woman with a pen gets fired for pretty much nothing.
Brian Williams going on the air claiming he was in war situations was probably the worst for me. That's equal to those people who go stolen valor. Wearing medals that aren't theirs. Claiming they were in wars they weren't. Like why in the world would someone leading the NBC News at 630pm do something so tasteless? That was bad and they were right for pp pulling him.
Then they brought in Lester Holt ..he always comes off like he's getting ready to smile and never does.
He was there, it just wasn't his aircraft that was shot down, it was another aircraft in the same convoy, IIRC.
If he had a concussion and just screwed up that would have been okay. If not and he's just hot dogging it then it is stolen valor and he gets zero respect.
Basically Brian Williams is a rapper, lying about stuff he didn’t do or experience 1st hand into a 🎤 😂
I think he is kind of gross for what his daughter did on "Girls". I know Lena Dunham wrote the scenes but Abigail brought them to life!
@@4bibimimi Oh yech! I didn't know that but it took me 10 seconds to dig up this quote after he watched the sex scene on Girls. “For us, watching her is the family occupation....no animals were harmed during the filming and ideally nobody gets hurt.” If I had a daughter she could do whatever she wanted but I wouldn't be watching it on TV with the whole family. Pervert.
I don't know why the lady in the Thumbnail got fired. Someone in the staff should've told her that they were about to air, soon.
I'm new to all this, I know this is stupid but what is a thumbnail?
@@loriwood4938 the still picture at the beginning of the video
I think she got unfairly fired
@@kershabeaver3312 thank you!
@@loriwood4938 you are welcome
Natasha though. Has made a comeback and she's doing great now. Good to see that
If she's getting paid at all, then she's doing better than she was at that place that fired her. I think unpaid internships should be illegal.
Don Lemon Googled "when is a woman in her prime?"
Bravo. That's journalism right there.
Can’t believe he didn’t cite Wikipedia too 😂
In her prime for what?
" I don't know, I only read the first line of what I Google. Reading is hard. It's not like I'm a journalist or something..."
Lemon got away with saying all white Christians men are terr- o- it’s . Seems that was okay to say.
Women age bear-trap, it's something most adults don't step into!
I mean, to be fair, arent we all in our prime in our 20s, 30s and maybe 40s??? I mean humans in general...
6:25 when the teacher calls on you while you're not paying attention
It’s 6:26 😂 freeze frame lol
Paula Abdul was famous before American Idol. Now did it revitalize her career that is closer to truth
6:10 - Natasha Exelby, if I had my way, I would have those who had fired her fired and blacklisted.
Yeah, her shocked look went viral. But nowhere near ANY justification for the actions they took against her.
People are so hypocritical. Let any one of us have some of our private conversations publicized and we'd ALL come under fire.
literally, anyone who says otherwise is lying
100% of people, if they had the past 5 years of their lives examined, would absolutely be utterly fucking destroyed in the public eye. It doesn't matter what you think, how you feel, how careful you've been, or how you lean one way or the other in any matter. The standards for what is and isn't appropriate is extremely blurred, inconsistent, and far more hurtful than it is helpful
Good thing Google Glasses aren't still a thing. Kids pushing their teachers buttons until she snaps, then you're on Y-Tube as crazy teacher sent for sensitivity training. My wife's 96 year old mom was fun, "Look at that fat kid riding a girls bike". Just don't say that in public mom "Why the Hell not?" It's a long story mom.
Soo you can’t criticize someone unless you’re perfect yourself?
That’s not the amazing point you think it is.
Usually the ones that are quick to claim "We're all guilty" are just the ones trying to mask their own.
@@allisoncastle Not what was said at all, but nice word lawyering. So many of the people doing the criticizing are hypocrites themselves.
It’s a shame that some peoples careers were ruined over a honest mistake.
But ruined for playing with a pen is ok? Jk
It's a shame that some peoples lives were cut short over honest journalism and reporting. RIP Gary Webb.
The pen one and Fbomb one shocked me. Its such a dumb reason to fire someone.
@@RayGainbows fbomb kind of makes sense cos TV stations get fined for breaking the rules for age and that, in Britain it's called the watershed and there's an independent governing body that makes sure they stick to it. Yeah it was an accident, but she probably cost them a lot of money
Like who? Besides AJ and Natasha
I remember watching the Kelly Osborn flub and the crazy thing is the other cohosts defended her when Rosie Perez took issue with her comment.
If I am ever caught saying something that offends others I will refuse to apologize because you still get fired and chastised, so you might as well own up to it and move on!!
This is why I don’t want to be famous or in the public.
I second that. I was on the local 11PM news years ago for a robbery I didn't see. "Tell us what you saw" Nothing "And how did that make you feel, like a victim?" No, I'm just hungry. Please go away.
You should do a video about 20 worse crooked politicians in current era.
Ehhh, it may be biased.
I think they would find it hard to choose just 20. Besides, politicians in the USA are very rich and powerful; getting any network to talk about the subject, much less honestly would be almost impossible.
We know who they are but won't do it.
Donald Trump, Joe Biden, Ron DeSantis, Justin Trudeau to name a few
There are bad apples on both sides. However if you do city councilmen, then it will be more balanced
The Kelly Osborn one is the best. She really thought she had a mic drop moment
And Kelly's Mom, Sharon, called what she does a "50 year long career." Her career was being married and managing Ozzie.
Calling someone a liar is not racist. Especially since that person has been proven over and over to be a consistent compulsive liar.
To me the Kelly Osborne comment highlighted the hypocrisy. She literally said the same thing numerous reporters and stars had said and still say.
the pen lady and the f-bomb on first day of work guy didn't deserved getting fired 😟

Rick Sanchez was a reporter in this Dimension?
Maybe the bigoted one can get a job working at Interdimensional Cable.
I always figured the pen lady wasn't entirely fired because she was daydreaming but because of her wacky meme like reaction in front of the camera instead smoothly playing it off
She was distracted for a couple seconds playing with a pen, and they cut ties with her?
There had to be other reasons
That's what I was thinking too. There must be some other details that we're not aware of.
Sadly there weren’t.
The person at the console (I forget what they're called), who pushes the button to change the camera back to her, should have given a countdown, 3, 2, 1. That used to be the way it was done in my short stint as a master control operator for a local TV station back in the mid 90's, before computers took over. Surely they have something similar in this "advanced" age of electronics. It sounds to me like the boss screwed up and the anchor lady got fired for it. Maybe that person didn't like her so they just switched the camera back to her without a countdown.
Honestly, the fact Sharon Osbourne still had a job after she and several others on The Talk made jokes about a man who was sexually mutilated by his wife, going so far as to talk about how "fabulous" it was, and implying he probably deserved it. She is a horrible human being - if you can even call her that - and the fact that wasn't the end of her career is nothing short of disgusting
Now let's talk about the hags on "The View"... 🤣
Yup
That last quote was powerful. Always put yourself in others shoes
In some of these, I wonder if the station was itching to find an excuse to fire the person anyway.
that "DEE DEE MEGA DOO DOO Face" is so iconic it's practically a meme - lol.

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Ouch, I hope they're doing better now. It's sad to see some of them losing their jobs, because we humans make mistakes all the time and it's more difficult for them to recover as they're famous. :(
I guess you totally forgot about Howard Cosell's on air remark that saw his career crumble when a commentator for Monday Night Football on September 5, 1983, Cosell made a comment about the Washington Redskins wide receiver, Alvin Garrett, in which he compared Garrett to a 'little monkey'. The fallout contributed to Cosell's decision to leave Monday Night Football following the 1983 season.
Howard how could you? The first guy to publicly address Cassius Clay as Muhammad Ali does this? I don't remember that but I'll take your word for it.
@@dicksonfranssen You can Wiki it. It was a big deal at the time.
That sad situation with the Garrett comment by Cosell actually belongs in this infamous list more than a few mention here. I would have even lowered Paula Abdul's weird behaviors (rumored to be on heroin) to at least the #19 or #20 or even dishonorable mentioned list.
PS Cosell was still part of ABC's MLB Baseball Coverage until the end of the 1985 season. Then when he came out with a book criticizing everyone at ABC including his long time Boss Roone Arledge, then he was fired. The Cosell departure at ABC and end of his life considering at 1 point he was among the most famous Sports Commentators on the planet should have at least been TOP 10 IMO.
@@americangiant1003 We had a family friend who worked for Roone Arledge and she made it clear Arledge was a reasonable man but was not to be provoked. Saying something in the heat of the moment is one thing, putting it in a book is something else. What did Cosell expect to happen? There's a few comments here expressing their undying love for Paula Abdull. She's a cheerleader who finished high school and got lucky, that's it. I wish her the best but I hope she saved some money and has a good agent, she's nothing special.
@@dicksonfranssen Great Point. There was a way for Cosell to be “honest” in his book without throwing his long time colleagues and bosses under the bus. Howard could have been much nice to Roone especially several times during the 1970s Cosell was live on the air being drunk during Monday Night Football broadcasts. And Cosell was never fired or even suspended.
Show us the clips....don't just narrate...
Don't you just love it when people call what they say from their hearts a mistake?
I can tell you, when I google ‘Rick Sanchez’, I am looking for C-137.
I can't believe Jessica Savitch didn't make this list! In fact, I was waiting for her to come in as #1. She was one of the most visible women in television and a growing force in TV news. She went live on a news update where she slurred, stumbled, and generally gave the impression of being under the effects of illegal substances. Add to that her hot mike rants about the production staff and it was clear she was going down. Arguably the single most dramatic fall in TV news history. True, she died in a car crash only weeks later, but that's no reason to let her off the hook.
You have a good memory. That took place 40 years ago on an NBC News brief.
Well, I'm old. What can I say? @@johnmeyer3802
"there's no reason to let her off the hook" she's dead 💀
Shall we dig her up then? Let it go, let her rest in peace.
That's what NBC gets for picking Megyn Kelly over Tamron Hall.
I knoooow Tamron was cackling as she deserves 😂
@@jaxjaxattaxx😂😂😂
How she made it that far in life is a mystery. An MRI of her head would confirm the doctor's findings, it's completely empty.
who?
Judging by her show on RUclips, she's just as bad now.
Well if you don't like your job, that's one way out of it. You can get unemployment if you're fired. Not if you quit
unless you work for a company that finds a way to take the unemployment away.
Every outlet of TV that says we don’t express the same views as this person that just got fired is a liar. They’re probably worse than what the guy who got fired said.
Pretty much, yeah.
Huh who knew Rick Sanchez became a news anchor before being a crazy scientist.
I didn't!
So that's the cartoon he referenced
The Angel Cardenas one is kind of sad. You know the guy worked hard and was probably solid in his field. I can almost guarantee he was told by his bosses that he had to be more colorful/ outlandish/ and entertaining. His anxiety is palpable throughout that debacle. It's a shame he couldn't just be himself throughout his segments, probably the reason he got the job in the first place
You don't say Prime in reference to a woman's sexual peak. The term Prime is used in regards to cattle and other livestock
and there not
@@jimbo9208 exactly women are not cattle
technicalites. Peak and prime are synonyms. lol
Spoken like a true “white girl making up a problem to solve to pretend to make a difference” to me.
I cannot think of a single human being who would have an issue with using the word "prime" to explain that someone is in their best condition.
It's extremely worrying that the moment you think of "women" and "prime" you also think of animals. No human, ever, has made that comparison but you.
It's a good thing to see what it feels like to be down.... it's called being humbled and gives most people a new outlook on life and how they handle it.
Brain Williams left MSNBC almost 2 years ago. I was waiting for Don Imus’s downfall. Remember when he called black,female basketball players from Rutgers University nappy headed hos after commenting on their looks and tattoos? He shoulda been on this list somewhere.
I could be wrong but probably the reason IMUS was not on this infamous list is this. He was primarily a Radio Talk Show Host that later in his career had his shows broadcast on National Cable TV i.e 1st C-Span and later MSNBC and Fox Business.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes
With regards to your last story about Brian Williams, he actually left MSNBC in November 2021. It’s almost been two years that he hasn’t been on air.
I was looking for this comment. I was gonna say, I definitely remember him retiring a couple years ago now.
Did I miss Matt Lauer???!?!?
Matt’s things were behind the scenes.
Not really, did you see his interview with Sandra Bullock?

It strange that there are two Rick Sanchez but not the same Rick from the show.
Dropping the “F” bomb on live tv , doesn’t that make the station/ network incur hefty fines from the FCC? I can remember when a local & popular anchor accidentally said the “f” word on live tv, she got suspended for 6 months

Imagine being too right wing for Fox News 😂
Any job on the air is really tough because you get fired for the littlest thing. If everyone was recorded at their jobs and posted on the air, people would be losing their jobs all the time. Most of the people I work with say inappropriate things all the time and I guess they have had their jobs for so long and are so spoiled it doesn't phase them or they aren't even aware of it.
Surprised that Don Imus didn't make the list.
Yup he should be number one
You can probably find that on multiple RUclips channels since every channel covers the same topic
So, she was never heard from again, just because she was playing with her pen? Wow.
If you've got time to read some of the other comments, they say she's now got a job with a news station that actually pays her and she is doing well.
That rick Sanchez wasn't as smart as the anime one 😂
Why is it when it comes to these lists Don Immes's remarks towards the Rutgers women basketball team is never mentioned. I just think his remarks are more despicable then someone dropping the F bomb on live TV.
*Imus’
I thought the same thing.
Isn't he dead yet?
@mikeg7411 so it is OK for a guy to call a bunch of college girls' ho's live on air for no reason whatsoever.
His comments were made primarily on radio.
For Canadian Hockey lovers, you could add Don Cherry to that list.
He didn't do anything though. It was a racist anti canadian firing.
Don Cherry spoke the truth but you can not say anything against Justin Trudeau's chosen people but it's okay to insult old-stock Canadians. We miss Don for speaking up and not being a phoney liberal shill.
@@erics9754Blame Sportsnet, not your boogeyman
“gift for gab” isn’t a thing.
Brian Williams left NBC in 2022. Also you said the bachelor started in 1994 when it started in 2002. Do your research.
Agree Bob. WatchMojo does a good jobs with these surveys and lists. However they do make mistakes such as Mr. Williams no longer with NBC/MSNBC. Or not at least as a "dishonorable mention" having say Howard Cosell career and soon after his life ending after a controversial use of the "Monkey" term on a NFL player during the 1983 season.
She’s a girl, so she probably doesn’t do a thorough job at looking things up (just skims reads) and goes from there
So playing with a pen gets you fired 😂😂😂😂 thats fucking ridiculous
If I was fired like that, and I was big enough name, I would take some time off and then apply to rival stations, in order to get back at the station who got rid of me.
Well, rival stations wouldn't be stupid enough to hire a total failure.
I feel for Exelby!
Some of these people are unknowns.
Imagine zoning out for less than five seconds and that's the reason for why you get fired.
One for the next list (since you put on sports play-by-play men) would be Thom Brennaman. He used a derogatory slur towards homosexuals during a Reds game, but got caught with a hot mic. When he was pulled from the broadcast, he offered an apology...and paused in the middle of it to call a home run. He was fired by the Reds and Fox Sports almost immediately.
I'm no fan of the Bush family, but I felt kind of bad for Billy Bush. Some folks, in spite of themselves, might let a nervous laugh escape when they are interviewing a (supposedly) important public figure and said figure says something that no one in the room is comfortable with (save for the asshole making the statement.) That was a case being penalized for another person's crime (a crime we now know Mr. Trump committed on multiple occasions.)
Can’t fix stupid
Their association with Jimmy didn't have to end that way. They ended it.
His comments on slave "breeding" were backed up by a lot of prominent black leaders. Slaves were looked at as less than human farm equipment and the bigger and stronger the better.
God forbid anyone on TV speaks there mind or a differing opinion against the P. C. 'rules' and expects not to be condemned and destroyed.
Paula Deen’s newest cookbook wasn’t even sold on Amazon or barnes and noble online. 😂
Wait. Sharon Osbourne talks about her '50-year career being ended'. 50 years as what? Is she counting her time as a rock groupie as 'her career'.
Don Lemon seemed like he was losing it every since they moved him from Late Night to Mornings.
The new cnn boss admitted that he had wanted to fire him and others as soon as he got the job.
Brian Williams retired from NBC/MSNBC fairly long ago. How does MoJo NOT know this?
To be honest I am surprised that Don Cherry didn't make this list.
Outside Canada no one knows who he is. A miserable old man who thought he was God's gift to hockey, hated immigrants and never won a thing.
He didn't do or say anything wrong though.
@@bradmcdowell9168 At best he just said what we were all thinking. "This guy is tough, that guy was a coward, the official made a bad call". When he does that cranky old man thing about non-Canadians, only sissies wear face shields, French Canadians suck it's the least of his problems. Hating gays, loving Rob Ford, telling immigrants who fought for Canada what a poppy is was too much. His wife dies and 4 months later he's dating, then marries a woman 25 years younger. He creates Rose's House in 1997 in honor of Rose but it doesn't open for another 7 years, then he loses interest in it 3 years later. He's an old man who never won anything, he's worth 14 million and donates to one animal charity and can't commit to anything important.
Top 20 director's cut movies
Don Lemon, seconds after being fired by his female boss: "Oh, that's just like a woman. I'll bet she's on her period."
/s
Can't wait to see Kendrick Perkins in the updated version of this list.
The Megyn Kelly one was the most ridiculous reaction to a segment I’ve ever heard. She simply stated that things used to be different, big deal. She far better off now anyway with her own podcast. She’s killing it!
Yes! Megyn Kelly most definitely landed on her feet! She has more than 1.5 million subscribers on her RUclips channel alone, and I'm sure she has many more on her Sirius XM channel.
At 7:21 ...so what???...she didn't know she was miked!!!! Like no one has ever said that word...Plus, It's on cable!!!! She should NOT have been fired for something that insignificant...
Yooo Rick Sanchez wheres Morty!!
The number one spot was ultra ironic. The reporter got fired while the then candidate became president.
This is more about government choosing what speaks and who doesn't
The Australian woman who was playing with here pen should be number 20 she didn’t even do anything wrong.
Pen. Her pen. Not Here Pen. She shouldn’t have been fired at all.
@@jamiethal1319 Yeah totally I agree
@@jamiethal1319 I fix my grammar as well lol
You mention Glen Kuiper but not Thom Brennaman, who was fired for a different derogatory word while covering a game in Kansas City that also lost him his national job with Fox?
I do have some controversial opinions related to Lemon, Osbourn, and Kelly. I don't defend them entirely, but I think there are bits and pieces in what they say that are somewhat ignored.
There are two lessons to be learned from this video:
1. They'll cancel you for even the slightest of transgressions, real or imagined.
2. Don't waste your time apologizing.
When somebody refers to themselves as a "brand" that immediately causes me to dislike them.
