News anchors.........
I worked mornings for many years, and once when my sidekick-newsperson
went on vacation, the GM had the bright idea to have a local TV
newsreader fill in. "Think of the promotional opportunity". Well, this
guy couldn't write his own news, and in the studio, asked where the
TelePrompter was. Not a clue. We struggled through, but all was not
lost, he did get to nail the traffic girl..........
News anchors are bred for looks, not brains. Proves that even men can be
bimbos...
