Reporter John Sanders lost his job with Baltimore, Maryland's WBAL-TV after doctoring the audio in a video clip of Fox News' John Gibson. The video was made to sound as if Gibson called Attorney General Eric Holder a "bright blue scrotum." Sanders posted the video on YouTube under his personal account. In a statement, WBAL-TV said they do not "condone such behavior" and said the video does not represent the views of the station.*FOXNews.com: Baltimore Reporter Out of a Job After Posting Doctored Video Clip (February 24, 2009)

Bright Blue Scrotum
Sanders said he made the video after watching a Fox News report about the chimpanzee that killed a woman in Connecticut. Speaking to a reporter from Breitbart.tv, Sanders said he was amused that a cable news network would say "bright blue scrotum" so many times. Sanders thought it would be funny to doctor Gibson's voice, whose report followed the chimp story. His original attention was to share with friends.*Breitbart.TV: TV Reporter Who Doctored John Gibson 'Scrotum' Audio-
