BREAKING! Pittsburgh Anchor is Fired for Facebook Post

FIRST ON FTVLive! FTVLive was the FIRST to tell you about WTAE Anchor Wendy Bell's Facebook post that many read to be racist and insensitive. 

Bell tried to edit the post a couple of time before pulling it down and posting an apology. By that point the damage was done.

The station issued on on air apology and Bell hasn't been seen on the air since. Bell took off with her family to a planned trip to Disney World, but the calls for her firing back in Pittsburgh got louder and louder.

Just a few minutes ago WTAE News Director Justin Antoniotti announced to the staff that Bell was no longer with the station. 

FTVLive will have more on this story soon.
