"fact" is not a fact unless it is documented as such; you need to provide information about the day and time of the show as well as a quotation from syler showing her saying it that other people can check for accuracy to verify it; or a newspaper article quoting the statement from the show (for example, as an alternative, if there is no transcript or podcast that one can link to so people can hear her say it).

Syler was actually fired from the Early Show before her departure in December 2006 as noted in the following quote from an interview on WGN News at Noon on April 11, 2007 while being interviewed about her new book and asked about her why she decided to have a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy:
"Yes, it really was. It was absolutely about wanting to stay around for my children. I had a very strong family history of breast cancer with both a mother and father with breast cancer which always gives doctors a cause for concern when it's a father. I had my own breast disease diagnosed in 2003, hyperplasia atypia which is widely seen as a stage right before breast cancer. And after 4 biopsies in 4 years, it just was too much. And so I made the decision in January to have a prophylactic mastectomy. All of this was happening as I got fired from my job on the Early Show at CBS and was having my breast removed. And you know what, I felt like it made me stronger and I didn't know that's how strong I was."
