The Portland Trail Blazers fired Braiden Bell hours after announcing him as their new TV play-by-play announcer.

The dismissal came the same day he was hired, after old online posts surfaced.

The article says those posts included derogatory remarks about gender and race.

CBS Sports and KGW headlines in the piece describe the comments as misogynistic and racist, and say he made them as a teen.

Fans and online observers found the posts soon after the hiring announcement.

The franchise reviewed the material and ended the employment the same day.

The broadcasting role is vacant again, and the team must restart its search.
