She is not one to talk. If memory serves me correct, as I was a member of the forum she was allegedly posting at back in the day, she posted inappropriate comments including about another African-American reporter, on multiple occasions calling her the n word. http://www.phillyvoice.com/former-nbc10-anchor-goes-viral-calling-out-racist-email-air/ 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/260/#findComment-190895 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloomberg is free on anything that has a functioning web connection at this point (though without the sidebar GFX). They probably figured that into why not to carry it. TWC you can excuse as dumb, but Bloomberg has just as much blame here for their looseness with how you can watch their channel. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16860-out-about/page/260/#findComment-190999 Share on other sites More sharing options...
