Does she have a gofundme?
We need more people in these positions calling out Musk as saluting like a nazi; I just feel bad that they are loosing their jobs
Free to do a nazi salute but not free to criticize it.
The culmination of the Paradox of Tolerance.
Obeying in advance. Our “news” media are despicable
Oh man, those poor folks still on X, fighting and hoping that they still have the freedom of expression. Have they not seen any WWII movies? Just sitting around won’t do anything to stop the hate and what the President and his crew are up to.
many wisconsin stations are downsizing and consolidating, closing local news operations and studios, etc. one ownership group (different than this one) is actually getting rid of local weather persons and outsourcing their weather to the weather channel or some bullshit like that. which will work real well when localized bad winter weather hits, or tornado/flood seasons.
at any rate, this station (and others) are probably on the constant lookout for a reason… any reason… to shed someone from their staff, and if replaced–will replace for less money.
Joke’s on them. Project 2025 plans to dismantle NOAA and gut/privatise the National Weather Service.
Who will pay for their weather forecasting once nobody will give them that data for free (under zero government funding)? They could just stop doing weather entirely, I guess, but millions of people rely on local weather reports to know whether to go to school or work. How do they plan to pay for that data?
I can’t believe how short-sighted some CEOs and mgmt types insist on being.

It takes a lot of courage to speak out against fascists in power. Not enough Germans did it and look what happened.
If you’re a good person, you probably don’t want to work for a corporation that enables fascists. Hope this person finds a better employer.
Send those same words here. You put that quite well, and they need to hear it from as many of us as possible.
At least we now know that WDJT-TV is pro Nazi.
This just in: Members of the news no longer allowed to report on the news. Stay tuned as this story devel…
… wait, where are you taking me?
Her replacement will be predicting a lot of Heil in the future
Every person at that new organization that does not resign in protest is one step into First they came …
This is honestly really scary. Why should someone’s livelihood be ruined for calling something what it is?
Fascism.
He’s also on a list for when their squads start knocking down doors and murdering their enemies, I guarantee it.
He’s probably got at least another year before that frog is boiled enough though. Hope he enjoys it.

So why is CBS affiliate WDJT-TV in Milwaukee Wisconsin defending the speech of an apartheid-loving fascist who did a full-on nazi salute on national TV? And if that’s not what they’re doing, then why did they fire that reporter?
That’s the question that every real news outlet should be asking.
If Sam Kuffel needs help paying rent, I’ll donate.
They are less tolerant of their employee cursing than a billionaire spreading nazi salutes.
