A Milwaukee-based CBS affiliate has dismissed one of its weather presenters after she reportedly called Elon Musk a Nazi on social media, over a gesture the tech billionaire made during an inauguration rally for US President Donald Trump.
WDJT-TV (Channel 58), where meteorologist Sam Kuffel had worked since 2019, has confirmed her departure but provided no official explanation in an internal memo to or public comments, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
While the station described the matter as a “personal issue,” Kuffel was reportedly dismissed one day after commenting on Musk’s gesture on her Instagram account.
The TV channel has removed Kuffel’s bio from its website and no longer mentions her in its weather section, but retains articles written by her. Her Instagram account has been set to private, but screenshots purportedly capturing her posts are available online. She has not commented pub
Literally did it on impulse without even thinking about it so I wouldn't chicken out, so I blurted it out.
I said "I'm bisexual. I like both men and women. No more anti-gay stuff from you, ok?".
He said, "oh go away, you don't know what you like". I think he'll understand eventually, he needs time to think.
EDIT: Showed him this thread.
I said: "Look, this is what I said to you, these are my online friends who are happy for me that I came out as bisexual."
He said: "Oh you don't know what you're talking about, you've never had sex with a man or a woman before, until then you'll never know."
And yeah, I am still holding on to my v-card at 26. I was insecure about that years ago in high school, but I'm honestly glad I've waited to mature first.
