To be fair, he wasn't saying it on one either. Well, not intentionally. He thought he was still on break and not live.

It's a frickin' honest mistake. Nothing more.

Well clearly he didn't mean to say it on air. I don't think anyone believes otherwise. But I think it was also incredibly irresponsible to say that word in the booth at all because he was clearly speaking in the presence of colleagues when he said it. That's a pretty cut and dry fireable offense at any job in America if your superiors find out.

You don't know very many superiors. It's fireable of the RIGHT superiors, or more likely, the RIGHT inferiors find out. People most likely not in on the conversation and just have 2nd or 3rd hand knowledge of it.

Here's another question....

Would the announcer (or another announcer) have been equally as suspended or fired had they said something about a Honkey on air?
