Which F-Word?


When I read this on Romenesko 

Anchors from Detroit’s WDIV react to an off-camera reporter using the F-word in a live remote shot 

 I assumed it meant fag. Turns out it was the f-bomb, as noted in the headline.

“I don’t have IFB [interruptible feedback],” reporter Lauren Podell said, unaware that the co-anchors were ready for her fire report and that she was heard by viewers. “I don’t know when we’re going, neither does Jim. I can’t get this fucking in there!” Co-anchor Evrod Cassimy quickly told viewers: “We apologize for that.”
