Female Meteorologist Who Called Out Erin Andrews Over Fake Weather Report Has Been Fired From Her Job

Erin Andrews Did Not Get Sam Kuffel Fired

Kuffel’s exchange with Andrews had nothing to do with her dismissal, but social media activity was at the center of it.

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the CBS 58 weather reporter was terminated after sharing posts branding Elon Musk a “Nazi” after his curious gesture at Donald Trump’s inauguration earlier this week.

“Dude Nazi saluted twice. TWICE. During the inauguration,” she wrote as the caption to an image of Musk with a hand on his chest. “You f**k with this and this man, I don’t f**k with you. Full stop.”

She also posted a GIF from the TV show ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ captioned “Screw that old b**ch. He’s a Nazi.”

Kuffel was relieved of her post the following day, with said outlet obtaining a memo from the network’s news director, Jessie Garcia,  revealing as much.

“Meteorologist Sam Kuffel is no longer employed at CBS58,” it reads. “A search for a replacement is underway.”

As for Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO, who also owns X, has denied his gesture was a Nazi salute despite the optics.

“Frankly, they need better dirty tricks. The ‘everyone is Hitler’ attack is sooo tired,” he wrote in a tweet.

He has since made multiple satirical posts responding to the criticism.
