A leaked newsroom video has revealed a heated exchange involving former Fox 2 anchor Taryn Asher, captured in 2023. The footage shows Asher calling her supervisor a "bitch" following a disagreement about her prompter reading during a PSA segment filming. This incident came to light nine months after Asher's dismissal in November 2025 for alleged "outbursts" and "unprofessional workplace behavior."
Asher was officially terminated in May 2026.
