I repeat, NOT fired.
An NBC spokeswoman said, "No truth to firing conjecture. She will not be fired."
However the NY Daily News is reporting that executives were none too pleased with Slate's slip-up & held a big meeting after the show. Apparently Slate was also a no-show at the show's after-party.
I gotta say, I really hope that Slate isn't punished in some other way for this and I hope that she continues to get the chance to shine in sketches as she did on Saturday before her unfortunate mistake.
