Funny Video: Weatherman is just begging to be fired (with video)


  Meet weatherman Pete Bouchard, who says, "Please, somebody, fire me."

The joke that the weatherman makes in the clip below is off-color, but the words themselves probably aren't "Not Safe For Work".  More importantly, though: what was this dude thinking?  Following Ernie Anastos' immortal line about what one should keep doing to a chicken last year, it's time to start wondering if these newspeople aren't just begging to be fired.  Read on for the clip, my gentle Examiner readers...

Just about every week, some clip like this shows up online: a news anchor, weatherman, or talking head on some news program says something that's wildly, obviously inappropriate.  Ya gotta wonder: is this how newspeople commit career suicide?  Check out how Pete Bouchard does it, folks:

Aaand: back to you, Paula.  Look, this writer's no prude, but that's just a stupid move on this dude's part.  Was he really thinking that he could just refer to the size of his junk on the air without getting some sort of reprimand the moment the cameras stopped rolling?  We got sent the link to this video by Comedy Examiner reader "HazelEyes" (who's a liar; her eyes are blue), and we thank her for the contribution.  Now get us an interview with this weatherman so we can find out what the hell he was thinking.
