I mean no offense but I don’t give a fuck about Fox 17 in Nashville, until I saw this sweet ass Prince highlight reel. Was all ready to add it to my bookmarks, like hey this news site gets it. Now that I know the dude was fired for being “insensitive” I will never watch another news clip from Fox 17 Nashville for as long as I live. Way to honor the
