VIDEO: Rookie North Dakota News Anchor Fired After Dropping F-Bomb on Air

A.J. Clemente, a rookie news anchor from North Dakota, was swiftly fired after dropping the f-bomb on air, according to CBS News.

Clemente, who had recently graduated from West Virginia, kicked off the newscast by saying "f---" and "sh--," likely not realizing he was on air. "Rookie mistake. I'm a free agent. Can't help but laugh at myself and stay positive. Wish I didn't trip over my 'Freaking Shoes' out of the gate," Clemente tweeted after the broadcast.
