    I think he got completely thrown off by the realization that what he had just uttered had made it on the air.

    However, I assume he was warned in advance there would be a moment for him to reveal a little about himself to the viewers. His preparation was phenomenal.

    I was going to say this guy can at least take solace in knowing Boom Goes the Dynamite guy is a working anchor...

    ...but no, he isn't. I knew he got hired in Waco, but looks like he got laid off, got a job working on the web page of the FOX affiliate in Cincinnati for a while, and now works for a content provider doing SEO writing.

    Well, go back on his tweets enough and you'll find the N word and the phrase "No homo."

    But, judging by the responses on the station's Facebook page by commenters, it appears he won't be fired or else get tons of backlash from everybody that watches the station.

    And the background image of his Twitter page is a photo of a bunch of cassette tapes, including one prominent one labeled "Music Touched My Vagina."

    This dude should bypass Bismarck and go straight to CNN.

    He may be better than Wolf.

    All that aside, his answer to the prompt was horrible.

    "Tell us a little about yourself A.J."
    "I'm very excited. I graduated from West Virginia University and I'm used to, you know, from being in the East Coast."

    Last I checked, North Dakota is far from the East Coast.

    You know, if you listen to it again.... pretty sure he says "gay fucking shit."

    CNN could train the camera on Wolf's white butt for an hour, and it would be better than Wolf.

    That's what I thought, too.

    Say ... ND, eh? ... Could it be?

    Don't forget to look into the camera, mushmouth. :D
