Kenneth Coo Published 08/29/2019
During a segment about a local zoo, KOCO Oklahoma's anchor/host Alex Housden made an off-hand comparison of a gorilla to her co-host, Jason Hackett, stating the gorilla "kind of looks like [him]."
Housden took the opportunity to apologize on-air the very next morning, which Hackett graciously accepted while pointing out that this was a "teachable moment."
