KRON; your local independent TV flea market, has hired yet another weather person; the usual recipe: blond, banal and cheap. The latest lass hails from Sacramento and is curiously named Louisa Hodge.
KRON: 400 weather people. A few news anchors. Henry Tenenbaum pimping lawn furniture and infomercials up the ying-yang. Oh, and according to many rank-and-filers, some delicious bedroom stories involving the higher-ups. Calling Wayne Shannon.
**Another 49ers loss; another KNBR morning show beauty: open show with two-minute manufactured bit, followed by twenty minutes of local high-school football minutiae; way to know your market, "Smurf and crap"...Raiders looked like the old days of Stabler, Branch and Biletnikoff; good news on the radio front too; they'll most likely be on another radio station next year, (figure it out)...Raiders, as tough a season as they've had at least got CBS' second team of Gumbel and Dierdorf; Niners got Fox' eighth team of Lumpy, Dumpy, Donnen and Vixer...

Smurf & Crap were promoting a phone-in from Gradkowski, so they are trying to give the Raiders some love, or else take attention away from the 49ers loss.
ReplyDeleteI've seen Louisa Hodge on Fox 40 in Sac, sorta hot.
Rich, if you're going to keep burying Henry Tenenbaum in every other post, it might behoove you to start spelling his name right.
ReplyDeleteOr, to sing it in the spirit of the holidays: "O Lieberman, O Lieberman / It's Tenenbaum, not Tannenbaum..."
Correctomundo! Thanks; I should know better.
ReplyDeleteYou mean a nationally broadcast Steelers game got better known announcers than a regional SF vs Seahawks broadcast? The fact that Oakland was playing the Steelers is irrelevant.
ReplyDeletePrefer the saucy Vicki Liviakis to the smarmy, pleated-chino wearing Tenenbaum when it comes to my KRON mega-commercials.
Let's get Greg Papa on an FM station for the Raider games. Hearing the 49ers on The Bone in 'stereo" is a great way to listen to a football game
ReplyDeleteTenenbaum should have been buried years ago. The guy is a perinnial talentless bore. KRON hiring another blonde bimbo? Hey - it might as well join the Fox News Network, that is all they hire.
