An anchor for a Fox affiliate in Cincinnati, Ohio called lesbian MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow “such an angry young man” on her Facebook page last month.
Tricia Macke was taken to task by followers and asked to apologize. “You are right,” she wrote. “I am sorry. I should have said ‘antagonistic.'” This was followed by “I knew what I was saying.”
GLAAD President Herndon Graddick said that Macke owes an apology to Fox 19 viewers, as well as “young people in Ohio who are subjected to unfair bullying and harassment like this on a daily basis.”
The exchange has been removed from her Facebook page, but a follower took a screenshot of the post, which was obtained by Equality Ohio and GLAAD.
