Mississippi News Anchor FIRED For Quoting Snoop Dogg: ‘Fo shizzle’On-Air

Barbie Bassett has been fired after quoting Snoop Dogg on air earlier this month. Bassett worked at NBC affiliate WLBT, and during a March 8 broadcast she engaged in an on-air discussion around Snoop’s Cali wine line. At one point, Bassett said the phrase, “Fo shizzle, my nizzle.”

TV personality Charlemagne tha God had the following to say:
"I don’t think she should have been fired for that," Charlamagne said on "The Breakfast Club" podcast. "She might not even know what ‘nizzle’ means, yo. Come on, like stop. That’s not a reason to fire that woman."
