A pair of radio announcers in Maine were fired after making disparaging comments about the weight of two girls playing in the high school basketball game being livestreamed, according to the Press Herald.
During the game between Central Aroostook (Mars Hill, Maine) and Easton (Maine) High School on Thursday, the WHOU-FM broadcasters were caught on the hot mic.
“Extremely overweight. Awful,” said one of them, and the other responded by saying that uniforms need to be found “that fit the girls.” There was laughter heard following that comment.
