"A Pittsburgh TV station has fired an employee who used a chyron calling Tom Brady a “known cheater” into a broadcast on Monday, SI.com reported.
The offending joke, referring to Brady and his team’s unsavory past, flashed on the screen for two seconds in what was an otherwise rote pre-Super Bowl newscast.
Here’s the statement CBS affiliate KDKA shared with SI.com:
"While fans are entitled to have personal opinions, we have a journalistic responsibility to provide unbiased reporting. The graphic that appeared Monday violated our news standards. The individual who created the graphic no longer works for KDKA-TV.""

Known Cheater is an unbiased statement. If the station fired whomever on that, they might have a case...

I feel a company like this would have approved statements to air. If he deviated from his task then he may not.
