Lauren Podell Resigns from WDIV

http://www.detroitnews.com/story/ne...ren-podell-resigns-amid-controversy/94002350/

I declined to post anything about this story, as I felt there wasn't enough to substantiate the allegations. As she has now resigned, likely in order to avoid being terminated, it's almost certainly true that she did use the disgusting pejorative she was accused of uttering.

Considering her last brush with an outburst, that one caught on air, one would've thought she'd be more careful on what she said at work. Her career in broadcast journalism is likely over. She was a decent reporter with a pleasant on air presence. She almost certainly owed her hiring to her father's status in local media, but she proved herself as capable in the position. Hopefully she learns from this.
