Former NYC News Anchor and Priest Fired for Hot Mic Insult.

Rosato had previously worked as a priest in Florida while pursuing a journalism career. The church he worked for, Saint Anthony of Padua Catholic Community, is not directly associated with Roman Catholicism but follows similar ideals and allows divorce and contraception. Rosato has not commented on his dismissal, and the reason for his firing has not been publicly disclosed.
