WBAL-TV fires reporter over prank

The Baltimore Sun publishes this item under the “entertainment” section:

Sanders admitted inserting a graphic phrase into a video to make it appear that John Gibson of Fox News was denigrating U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.
In the faked video, which appeared first on YouTube and later on The
Huffington Post, Gibson is shown using the phrase “bright blue scrotum”
while referring to Holder.

A statement from WBAL claims that Sanders posted the video on his
personal YouTube page “without the prior knowledge or consent” of the
network or its affiliate.
