Baltimore TV station WJZ has fired anchorwoman Mary Bubala for asking a question perceived to carry racial overtones and gender bias.
“We’ve had three female, African-American mayors in a row,” Bubala said. “They were all passionate public servants. Two resigned, though. Is this a signal that a different kind of leadership is needed to move Baltimore City forward?”
Baltimore TV Anchor Fired For Allegedly Biased Question Regarding Past Mayors – Deadline
Baltimore is in the top 3 as one of the most dangerous cities in America. It's past 3 mayors all left office in disgrace while the city deteriorates. Although Mary Bubala says she made a mistake in language and gave a sincere apology, it was still a valid question given the circumstances in Baltimore. Bubula worked 22 years at the Baltimore station while winning awards.
Clearly it's not a reporters job to ask tough questions these days.
