Thursday morning on Fox 5’s “Good Day New York” program, the anchors were having a debate about alternative names you could call soy ‘milk,’ since as the Daily Caller puts it: “it is, as we all know from unpleasant experience, technically not milk”. Anchorwoman Rosanna Scotto blurted out “soy jizum” as a possible name for the white liquid, which is funny and not the most appropriate imagery for morning news, but DUDE – watch how her co-anchor just lets her hang there in silence and awkwardness. No bueno, brohiem.
A debate about what to call soy milk on “Good Day New York” this morning took an odd turn when veteran Fox 5 anchorwoman Rosanna Scotto pulled a Sue Simmons on live TV.
Scotto and her fellow anchors were debating the National Milk Producers Federation’s argument that products should only be called milk when it comes from an animal, not soy or rice.
When the topic of what to call soy milk came up, Scotto blurted out, Soy ji—um!”
Scotto’s confused co-anchor, Greg Kelly, looked on in disbelief as the banter continued during the live show.
“Rosanna!” Kelly said in a reprimanding tone.
This is not the first time a TV anchor has gotten into hot water for their salty comments.
WNYW/Channel 5 brass apologized last year after Ernie Anastos’ chicken-flavored cussing during the 10 o’clock news. The popular anchorman, a colleague of Scotto’s, blurted out, “Keep f- – -ing that chicken” to the shock of viewers last September.
The f-bomb mortified even his co-anchor during the Wednesday-night broadcast.
In 2008, salty-tongued Sue Simmons shouted, “What the f- – – are you doing?” during a live promo for her WNBC/Channel 4 show.
That instance was actually much weirder…
