Was that an excerpt from Christine's last rejection letter? Great Exclusive! That pic kinda looks like C.C. minus the radiator grill stuck to her face.
That’s the way it is today. Diane Sawyer knows how to play an interview just right. She has a warmth and engagement that doesn’t go so far as to disturb her overriding, upstanding stature and dignity. Add to that her tenure of years of trust and respect from viewers, and you have a quality air product. But talent like that cost money. Today, “cheap” is the operative modus as the media pie gets shredded into more and more pieces, and the fat old days are gone. If you have the talent and savvy of a Diane Sawyer, you’ll be passed over for the pinup girl of the motorcycle club from KGTV who is far less expensive. It’s just the way the game is played today.
Also, there was a time when Diane Sawyer was just starting out, just like newhires today. I'll bet she wasn't setting the world on fire then. A few of the new hires might turn into excellent broadcasters of tomorrow.
Diane Sawyer was both a beauty queen and a scholar.One of her first jobs was in San Clemente...editing the Nixon memoirs and preserving and organizing presidential papers. She was no ditz. 6:01 suggests that I'm an old single aunt gardening with pants rolled up. Firstly, there is a drought, so gardening doesn't mean gardening. When trying to keep the cherry, plumot, apple, pear, walnut and almond trees alive with little water, I'm usually in a speedo and shorts, no rolled up pants. I had no idea that gardening and wearing pants were evil. I'm divorced. There are pluses and minuses to being married and to not being married. I have no genetic nieces, but my two faux ones are both Haas scholars at Cal. Carry on.
Holy crap Christine was on the air Wednesday talking about the lion of course. She's just terrible. Sounds like an old single aunt who spends her days gardening with her pants rolled up. Throw Jan Wahl in there too!

Ample bossom. Don't let the clowns here get you down. Or just the 1.

ReplyDeleteChristine should be the live-action version of Katy Queef! Breet!!
DeleteI'm not sure I understand the question.
ReplyDeleteBut, if you're asking who has the brains, looks, presence and stamina to become an anchor - locally?
I nominate Cate Cauguiran, currently at KPIX, cuter than a bug's ear.
Cate is headed for big things.
DeleteOr how about Maria Medina. .... the current morning anchor at KPIX.
ReplyDeleteMaria Medina isn't permanent; she's only filing in for Michelle Griego while she's on maternity leave
ReplyDeleteWhile it is tough to watch her adlib and look at her zombie lips, i will take anyone over that big girl traffic reporter with the baby voice.
DeleteYes! Yes!
ReplyDeleteIsn't one enough?
