Bill Martin has been at KTVU for quite a long time--probably knows where all the bodies are buried in Jack London Square at Fox2--enough time to probably feel secure about his gig but not so long that someone named Rosemary Orozco might be cause for reflection and concern. To Martin.Orozco isn't that great a weather forecaster; in fact, I'm told she's been urged by numerous friends and confidants to significantly get her game up. But Orozco is also exceptionally pleasing to the eye, especially the males, for example, in Redwood City, say, who drive trucks and like looking at her.
Martin is nervous about that as all of us to some degree are and have been in life but when it involves your primetime gig you tend to explore every and all option(s); Orozco has been showing up all over the place on 2's various newscasts which probably explains why Martin is so nervous and why word on the street is that the Foxies are probably looking to make a move ...or not. My best guess is the former.

Maybe Bill should dress up in a court jester's outfit, throw confetti like Rip Taylor, & scream the word ASS!!! at least once every newscast.
ReplyDeleteEven he can't be blind as to why. When Rosemary dressed as Storm of the X-Men for the marathon? That's when everything started to really buzz about her. Its like KTVU hired a top A actress and now needs to push the nerdy guy next door out of the way.
ReplyDeleteIt used to be the no.2 weather person still made a decent living...
Plus she knows weather. Whether it matters is in the ratings eye of the beholder.
Martin should have fear and every on-air "talent" at KTVU should as well.When a once Great station now has goofballs for managers..he and Paulson ..all the good people are vulnerable..Orozco is boring/robotic if you really listen to her..so sad.
ReplyDeleteUm, I'm a male in the East Bay hills who works in the FiDi and I love looking at her. I'm guessing men everywhere like looking at her.
ReplyDeleteWho cares where one lives or what they do for a living?
Roger that! Like I have said before, she is a symmetrical goddess and are we lucky! I am not a robot.
Delete"I'm guessing men everywhere like looking at her."
DeleteCount my vote for that. I'm glad she isn't hiding that rack behind a news desk. I like my skies clear!
Tell Bill to sign up for the Dumb Fucken Donkey Kong Radio Show. He'll be of more use there.
ReplyDeleteHe has done just that. Only we commonly know it as KNBR.
DeleteI doubt anybody would argue that Rosemary is a force in meteorology. She's eye candy, with a pleasing, professional delivery and a welcoming on-air persona. These days, that's not half bad. Or would you prefer Roqui Theus?
ReplyDeleteAnd you'd prefer your weather out of the back of a subcompact? With faulty audio? Give me a looker like Rosemary Orozco any day of the week...
ReplyDeleteThe name of the game is ratings. The station with the best ratings win. America loves winners and we just won big time at the Olympics.
ReplyDeleteIf you asked Fox (cable), #1 in ratings 16 years in a row, which one would you hire for your team....Rosemary because it's all about ratings and nothing else! Big ratings, big bucks. Nothing last forever, time to give someone else a chance. Loyalty to employees went out the window a long time ago. It's called "Newsical Chairs."
Bill Martin?
ReplyDeleteThis guy thinks he is some minor celebrity because of his brief, more like miniscule, appearances on KNBR.
As if appearing on KNBR is a badge of honor.
Put some glasses on Martin and he is a dead ringer for Bob Wilkins.
There's his next move: Bring back Creature Features...with Bill "The Thrill" Martin...
DeleteDon't know if Bill Martin knows where all the bodies are buried in Jack London Square. But I'd bet the farm that Billy Martin did!
ReplyDeleteWhat would he possibly be worried about? How would there be any chance on earth she would be given his spot? In all seriousness I wonder if the term "meteorologist" is or soon will be irrelevant. A nice looking person, preferably in a flattering dress, is telling you if it might rain or not. Do you care if said person has a degree in the subject. even one of those correspondence-school certificates? Most likely you do not.
ReplyDeleteWhy are Bill and Rosemary like naked bananas ? Because they absolutely have no appeal. Christian Spencer is blah, too.
ReplyDeleteI prefer Steve.
ReplyDeleteWhenever Rosemary gives her weather forecast, she always get my isobar to rise significantly.
ReplyDeleteMine is bar none unless there is a high pressure system nearby.
DeleteCan't help but notice that the KGO weatherwomen (Lisa Argen, Sandya Patel) have new wardrobes (i.e. form fitting dresses) since they have their new set which features them full-length as opposed to the old partial views. I'm sure that's not by accident.
ReplyDeleteWhat is wrong with males who drive trucks and live in RWC? We all don't live in Ivory Towers in Piedmont like you, and we appreciate some eye-candy. Plus she does a decent job as Weather Guesser. So quick to beat someone down......
ReplyDeleteWhen Steve Paulson and Bill Martin exit KTVU I will have no reason to watch the news. They are head and shoulders above all the rest - especially Martin - and the only reasons I drop in on KTVU morning and nightly news. When the horrible tsunami hit Japan after the big quake a few years ago, Martin's live reporting well past midnight was in-depth and very informative.
ReplyDeleteYes. Reporting on major breaking news stories is going to be the true test for all these relative newbies. The last real catastrophe in the Bay Area (other than the Napa quake), was the San Bruno explosion. Hard to believe it, but Gasia covered it very well before full foxification took place. When the big one hits (and if all the major outlets aren't buried under rubble), it'll be interesting to see who can handle it. I'm guessing - not KRON. Not KPIX. Perhaps not even KTVU.
ReplyDeleteI've liked Bill Martin doing weather reports at KTVU for a long time, and enjoy him when he does a spot with Tolbert at KNBR.
ReplyDeleteBut Rosemary is smokin' hot, so that's a losing battle for Bill, I have to say.
Well let's see how far smoking hot gets you when the next disaster hits. Hope her tits get you the info and help you need. Gawd.
DeleteRosemary actually received an Emmy in the "Breaking News" category for the Napa earthquake. So you could say her intelligence and her tits has helped her well in the news industry.
DeleteWatching Rosemary is like watching Darya Folsom exposing their tight dresses to grab viewers attention. Their news and professionalism, average.
ReplyDeletePerhaps Tommy Tolbert can come to the rescue ...
