    lol weekend news.

    I understand that the weekend news team is usually considered the B-team, but some anchors are terrible.

    If any of you live in College Station, and watch KBTX weekends, Rashi Vats is terrible.

    Good that this moron lost his job, that was expected (especially b/c he was new). This guy may have torpedoed his TV journalism career with that comment. He will have a hard time finding another job in that industry.

    The person(s) who hired him and vetted him should also be reprimanded.

    Why is it good that he lost his job? His tweets make him seem like a decent fellow. Why do you have so much hate for a guy who dropped an f-bomb at the wrong time?

    It is the latest in North Dakota technology.

    I'm more disturbed by the fact the female anchor looks like Kim Jong Il with a wig.

    I rarely cuss at work and if I do I make sure it's not in a situation that will cause problems for me or my employer. If we're waiting for clients to show up for a meeting I'm not going to sit around dropping f-bombs knowing that they could walk in anytime.

    Of course, I'm not used to being from the east coast, so maybe things would be different if I were.

    Wow, and I thought Phillip Mena on channel 2 was the worst news anchor in the world.

    Sucks bad for that guy. Hope he gets another chance. Maybe a blessing in disguise no one really wants to live in north Dakota right?

    I feel bad for him. It was his first big break and he squandered it in a day. Not sure he will ever be able to get another job in the industry again. His dreams were dashed.
