Reporter Arthur Chi’en returns after f-word firing
September 8, 2005 
While flipping channels tonight, I noticed that reporter Arthur Chi’en, who was fired in May after using the f-word live in a report, was back on the air.
Chi’en is now reporting for the WB11 News at Ten after CBS2 fired him for confronting hecklers during a repor on Metrocard scammers. (See video here.)
It seems that the hecklers that got Arthur Chi’en in hot water were causing problems for The Opie and Anthony radio show. You know, the show that encouraged a couple to have sex in Saint Patrick’s Cathedral that got them fired and the couple arrested?
I’m happy to see Chi’en has a new job. CBS2 could have cut him some slack in the first place, especially considering his 12 years of reporting experience, but then again, they’re an affiliate of the network that let Janet Jackson show her boob live.

Hooray for boobs…er…cursing is bad.
How about Dick’s recent swearing incident?
