News 12 Bronx anchor Matt Pieper dropped an f-bomb, bashed welfare...live, on-air

News 12 Bronx anchor Matt Pieper, yapping with reporter Amy Yensi before they were about to report on the need for school crossing guards, dropped an f-bomb and bashed welfare. NYDN writes it up:

“And Dave wants you to also mention that parents do their fucking jobs and walk their little kids to school on their own and not rely on everyone else. Kind of like people rely on government assistance for their entire lives. And bye Felicia. I actually added the part about government assistance but it’s true. I mean, how old are these kids?”

Yensi laughed and responded, “I think I qualify for government assistance.”

“Just check that box, girl,” Pieper replied.



News 12 took to its Facebook page.

“As a result of a technical error during a program break this morning, a personal conversation between an anchor and a reporter was unintentionally placed on air,” the note read. “News 12 the Bronx deeply regrets that this incident ook place. The remarks of these individuals in no way reflect the views of News 12 management or other News 12 personnel.”

So get over it and move on.
