A 19-year public school teacher in America's Ugliest City - Philadelphia got sacked for showing a DVD to his class about the F-word.
Graphic sex scenes and every other obscenity you can imagine being in the DVD probably helped.
He showed the DVD to his journalism class.
The lesson...how to lose your job IF you ever get one as a journlist, teacher.
The teacher wanted to show his students that the word they so readily use has "coarsened the school environment."
Teach says he didn't know the film included a 38-sec (later timed) sex sequence.
Okay...don't fire him for showing the DVD, but for NOT screening it before showing it to the class.
The principal fired the 61-year old and the superintendent backed up the principal's decision.
An old student writes that this teacher is as "hip as a pocket protector."
He's also looking for a job...or not.
Do you think a 19-year veteran should be fired over one lapse in judgement?
