viva la Chi’en revolucion

Chi'en RevolutionFired CBS anchorman Arthur Chi'en has won his wrongful dismissal case against his ex-employers.

The revolutionary icon was kicked to the curb, as you may recall, for losing it under pressure, live on-air, and inquiring of a pestering gadfly:

What the fuck is your problem?

The Chi'en Cause was, naturally, taken up by bloggers and student journalists everywhere, particularly after it became known that the pestering gadfly in question was actually employed by another media organization specifuckally to perform such interventions.

From the Revolutionary Headquarters:

Arthur Chi'en, The Right Man At The Right Time!

Today's battle is only the beginning of a long and illustrious life of leadership in the war against placard-bearing satellite-radio drones and shell-shocked corporate news officers! Show your support of his righteous reaction in your office cubicle and/or local shopping center! He will report again!

And today's report, from the mainstream media:

F-word shouldn't have spelled 'fired' Chi'en WTF is your problem?
 
An arbitrator has ruled TV reporter Arthur Chi'en was wrongly fired by WCBS Channel 2 for blurting out the F-word on live television last year.
The station should have handed Chi'en a lesser penalty for lashing out at hecklers in a live shot when he thought the cameras weren't rolling last May.
