Sue Simmons won’t be on the boob tube much longer — and she’s leaving a mark!
The WNBC/Channel 4 anchor was caught in another hilariously candid moment, thanks to a hot mic moments before last night’s 11 p.m. news.
“The ball took a bad hop and it hit me in my breast!” Simmons said during Channel 4’s not-so-smooth transition from “Smash” to the news.
Co-anchor Chuck Scarborough was jarred by Simmons and asked: “Are we on?”
Then he casually went on to preview WNBC’s top story on the fatal Bronx car crash that killed seven.
“Now on 11, safety in question. An urgent call for action in the wake of a terrible crash that killed seven family members — three of them children,” the cool-headed Scarborough read.
Channel 4 has already said it won’t pick up the veteran Simmons’ contract. She’s set to leave 30 Rock in June.
Simmons has been on the air for 32 years and is in the final months of a $5 million contract.
This is not the first time Simmons has done this.
In May 2008, Sue’s blunder and subsequent apology for saying “What the f–k are you doing?” on air has gotten over 2 million YouTube hits.
