RADNICH FILE: would be easy to go over all the negative stuff in the late innings but why? We all know he had/has shortcomings but not all his fault. Family issues have priority here and he might be dealing with one now so let's give him a break; I will.
*I DON'T have a dog in this fight: the Mike Shumann affair; I just ask myself do we really think the ex-KGO-TV sports guy with a quarter-century on the job would actually, intentionally, steal a jacket? For what? I would give him the mother of all benefit of the doubt but that's just me. And KGO and the Disney folks could have too but did what they did and now here comes the legal beagles.*Real brave men who sit up in the broadcast booth and say it is the "baseball code" to hit a batter and retaliate sounds real bush to me; will it be the baseball code one day when someone is killed?
*Henry Lee was a damn good street reporter for the Chronicle and seems to be maintaining the tradition at KTVU just hope they don't start messing with him and tell him what to do; he knows the field like no one else.
*Radnich, Barbieri, Pete Wilson, I see a trend here.

*Yeah, maybe you're right; maybe dog stories do have a big meaning here because I forgot Time Magazine once had a cat on the cover, meow and ruff, ruff.
*It would be easy to say the local TV newscasts are getting dumber so yeah, I just said it.
*I harp and harp and harp on the amount of weather reports (TV and Radio) we get that are the SAME weather reports just five minutes earlier and am still dumbfounded on such a moronic practice of waster time. Maybe one day a local station, (like, say, you, KTVU?) bolt the consultant BS and give the viewer/listener ACTUAL NEWS? I mean, dwindling consumers mean maybe it would be creative and proactive if someone were to, yes, think outside the box.

*Rosemary Orozco: plenty of sex appeal and on-screen chemistry doesn't necessarily translate to primetime --they actually thought you had it and so did I but your forecasts still lack and your lightweight image has so far prevented you from overtaking Bill Martin which is sad in a way because Martin is boring and lacks screen presence; dullsville all the way. Get with it, Rosy.

Too much exposure for Rosemary, but last night Julie was over exposed on TV.
ReplyDeleteOrozco--A beautiful girl but she's never had "it".. am or pm. Agree about local weather casts. KTVU's Paulson has too many tweets and not nearly enough in depth information. I think the only thing Schuman is guilty of is blind arrogance. smh
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of adoring HH, I still miss Diane Dwyer and especially Peggy Bunker!
ReplyDeleteLove Diane Dwyer 5 stars and Peggy Bunker 4 stars but Heather Holmes? No. One star.
Delete''leagel Beagles'', or if it was Marty lurie, It would be ''Legal Bagels''.
ReplyDeleteSchu should go to KRON. I hear they have an opening there.
ReplyDeleteCan you give us more on the KTVU anchor who may/may not be cheating on his wife?
ReplyDeleteNot now. But stay tuned.
DeleteWhy would anyone steal an security guard windbreaker?
ReplyDeleteWhy?
2:38 Agree 100% re: Peggy.
ReplyDeleteWhen Henry Lee started at Channel 2, I thought they were trying to prank him by giving him an oversized microphone. Then I realized it was a regular microphone, he’s just a little person.
ReplyDeleteSaw part of Radnich's 10 PM sportscast tonight. He looked and sounded like a punch-drunk fighter, who has hung on way too long. Same haughty act, tired reused comments, lack of sports knowledge, bleary delivery, and "sage advice." Same name dropping, referring to each character (and there were many) as "The Great." In general, the same insufferable presentation from a sloppy bullshit artist.
ReplyDelete"...do we really think the ex-KGO-TV sports guy with a quarter-century on the job would actually, intentionally, steal a jacket? For what?" Did we really think a famous movie actress(Winona Ryder) would shoplift clothes from a store? She of course did and when the compulsion to steal overcame her ample income.
ReplyDeleteI'm neutral on Radnich, although his show with Larry Krueger is the best that KNBR has to offer. Re: Ralph Barbieri -- he
ReplyDeleteis a first class phony. He ripped Barry Bonds on a regular basis when he was playing for the Pirates. When the Giants signed Bonds, he embarassingly kissed his ass.
". . . his show with Larry Krueger is the best that KNBR has to offer." That is actually pretty sad.
DeleteWhat's with the Heather Holmes new Plain Jane look? Yikes.
ReplyDeleteThe wet rat look
DeleteHH was told to tone down the clubbing getups...
DeleteIt's a shame that Shumann got caught up in all the hypersensitivity since the Tom Brady Jersey incident a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteyes we want more wife cheating stories!
ReplyDelete"*Real brave men who sit up in the broadcast booth and say it is the "baseball code" to hit a batter and retaliate sounds real bush to me; will it be the baseball code one day when someone is killed?"
ReplyDeleteYup, it will and has, since it's already happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Chapman
