You need to be very careful when picking the bumper music for your cable news teases. On CNBC Monday afternoon, as anchor Kelly Evans went to commercial, the song they used as an outro contained uncensored usage of the n-word.
The song in question was B2K’s Fizzo Got Flow, and needless to say, it’s a pretty colorful song. It was a few segments later, towards the end of the hour, when Evans apologized for airing the song “and for any offense that it may have caused.”
This isn’t the first time CNBC’s gotten in some hot water for a musical suggestion, but at least no one specifically requested it on-air this time.
