Anchor drops f-bomb on live TV
There are things appropriate to say about a chicken on TV news and things that should be left unsaid.
We’re betting “keep (f-bombing) that chicken” falls in the ‘keep it unsaid’ category.
That’s the F-bomb New York anchor Ernie Anastos dropped during a broadcast Wednesday, Sept. 17, on FOX5 WNYW
Anastos made the rather odd statement during an exchange with weatherman Nick Gregory, according to the New York Post.
He’s not the first anchor to make an oopsie on TV.
Note: they may be funny, but they are not PG.

Suspect captured after checking Facebook on victim’s computer
Umm…the commission of a crime is not the time to check a friend’s Facebook status.
A West Virginia burglary suspect was nabbed after he checked his account on the social networking site using his alleged victim’s computer, Martinsburg’s The Journal reported Wednesday, Sept. 16.
Jonathan G. Parker, 19, of Fort Loudoun, Pa., logged into his account, but oops, forgot to log out before leaving the home with two diamond rings in August, according to court record obtained by the newspaper.
If convicted, Paker could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.
