A Fox 10 anchor kind of dropped the C-bomb on air yesterday.

Fox 10's Kari Lake described in the segment how Tempe police shot a man on Mill Avenue yesterday, but only after that man lunged at officers with a box cutter. Lake accidentally inserted an "n" in the most inconvenient place possible.

We're not sure if that truly qualifies as a C-bomb, since we've never really heard that exact word before, but those are four letters that you really don't want to string together on live TV in any fashion.
