When Bismarck, North Dakota NBC affiliate KFYR hired A.J. Clemente, I bet they didn’t think that his first words On Air would be Gay, F*cking Sh*t.
While returning from a live segment, Anchor Van Tieu went to introduce A.J. who was already muttering obscenities and homophobic slurs to himself. A.J. then introduces himself and gives a short Bio that is worse than his foul language.
AJ Clemente was subsequently fired after his on air gaffe.
Rookie mistake. I’m a free agent.Cant help but laugh at myself and stay positive.Wish i didnt trip over my “Freaking Shoes” out of the gate.

Unfortunately KFYRTV has decided to let me go. Thank you to them and everyone in ND for the opportunity and everyone for the support.

I just want to say that I did not say the word gay, I was trying to pronounce the London Marathon winners name Tsegaye Kebede.
