LOS ANGELES — According to The Washington Post, KTLA meteorologist Liberté Chan had planned to wear a black-and-white dress for her 8 a.m. weather report Saturday. But there was a problem.
"The pattern ... didn't work on the weather wall (for some reason, it turned semi-transparent), so after my first weather hit at 6 a.m., I changed," Chan wrote Sunday on her blog, Life of Liberté.
That's when she put on her backup outfit – a black beaded dress.
"It looks like she didn't make it home from her cocktail party last night," one viewer wrote.

"There is no controversy at KTLA," she wrote on her blog. "My bosses did not order me to put on the cardigan, it was a spontaneous moment. I truly love my job, I like my bosses and enjoy working with my coworkers. Since talking to my team, I want our viewers to know it was never our intention to offend anyone. We are friends on and off the air and if you watch our newscast, you know that."
