Unfortunate incident, but good lord, people are allowed to have opinions and use whatever language they want when they assume they are off-air. These aren't politicans being caught talking inappropriately about constituents or anything.

If you're Dougie Hamilton would you want to spend half the year traveling with someone who embarrassed and insulted you like that? If you're Freddie Hamilton would you not be pissed if someone essentially called your brother the R word? Criticism is one thing, but this went well beyond that.
Media people are held to a higher standard than the average fan. There's a certain responsibility that comes with the job, especially when you travel with the team and/or work for a rights holder (assuming that is the case). Whoever that was completely failed his employer. Embarrassing for him, insulting for the Hamilton and the Flames. Neither his employer or the Flames will stand for that.
