Bill Crane, an apparent anti-Trump Atlanta area reporter, is reportedly out of a job. It seems that amid the CNN shakeup, some news channels are realizing their seemingly (to us) rabid left-wing bias is costing them big league.
Crane apparently referred to the highly esteemed former and possible future President Donald John Trump as ”orange face”. During a discussion of Fulton County’s “investigation” of Trump, Crane said according to Newsweek:
“I offered that it is part of Democratic Party strategy to keep President Trump’s fantasy of a stolen election in play, as well as to keep his orange face looming large as a Bogeyman to increase Democratic voter turnout, even though Donald Trump is NOT on the ballot anywhere in 2022. The Orange Face comment was found to be extremely offensive by some WSB-TV viewers. Calls followed to the switchboard, as well as social media posts, texts, and emails.”
The station put out a statement. Ray Carter, the WSB manager said Crane “uttered remarks not aligned with our commitment for fair and unbiased reporting and analysis.“ He went on:
“As a result, we’re ending our relationship with Mr. Crane, effective immediately,” Carter added. “We value the trust we’ve fostered for decades with our viewers, and we continue working hard to earn and maintain that trust.”

The station in the Atlanta, Georgia area is owned by Cox Media Group and an ABC affiliate.
