WEDNESDAY WASH

NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE TO REPORT about the closed-door meeting at KTVU --word is both Heather Holmes and Julie Haener were essentially told by the HR Countess to "cool it" --which drew sarcastic laughter from the protagonists --HERE'S A WILD HUNCH: I'm betting a tuna sandwich Holmes is looking to get out of KTVU and possibly head to either KPIX (if they bite) or, believe it or not, Sacramento, yes hot, smoldering Sacto but she really wants out of the Foxies because it's a pain to be a perpetual second or third fiddle.

Alyana Gomez

*Meanwhile, in the middle of all the hullabaloo  of which she had zero to do with is Alyana Gomez, who anchors Friday night and is a often-used fill in --KTVU is keen on eventually using her in some primetime slot which probably further pisses of Holmes because she can't fathom her loyalty has gone unanswered --maybe she should go buy another cocktail skirt from Ross and sip a highball around the corner at Kincaid's.

*HERE'S SOMETHING THANT QUITE ANNOYS ME: The complete lack of classy dressing from most of the women anchors here. They look so tarnished, so basic, so unprofessional. Do they ever look in the mirror before they hit the desk? I'm not saying they have to dress like they're going to the ball but how about a nice blouse and dress? Something simple, something that looks as if you care and not some crap from the Nordstrom Rack. It's frankly unbelievable how AWFUL these women look. Like they don't care and it comes through on the screen and it looks appalling and downright disgusting.

*OF the many problems at KPIX (and there's considerable) is the lack of chemistry between most of the anchors. They have NONE. They consistently BITCH and MOAN to the point of perpetual irregularity --(no, not that kind, but close, symbolically) Ken Bastida continues to look lost and ready to call it quits; Liz Cook really tries to hard to appear sincere and caring but comes off as a wet piece of gouda cheese. Paul Deanno lately looks like he's auditioning to go back to Seattle. Maybe Deanno is still steaming because they low-balled him to do weather and news. And sports anchor, Dennis O'Donnell? Holy cow, what a complete disaster. DOD should stop having cocktails at the Old Ship with women who hate the fact he's a married man.

*KRON off the air !! Oh my God, I can't sleep!

*Yeah, right, name me anybody other than the four schmendricks in Berkeley that have TV antennas.

*KRON is so irrelevant, so distant, so clueless, who gives a damn. They lost focus years ago even before the Young/NBC debacle. Nobody really cares anymore about watching this travesty that has all the charm and sincerity of a Lodi Arby's. Really, KRON has no basis to be on the air with their amateur sound, look, appearance --an UTTER, ABYSMAL CATASTROPHE of EPIC PROPORTIONS. Just simply go Away.

CBS News correspondent/anchor Jericka Duncan

*YOU WANT CLASS, BEAUTY, DIGNITY, and ONE HELLUVA REPORTER? Try CBS' gorgeous and smart, Jericka Duncan. She's a very dedicated woman with terrific delivery, star presence and a tenacious reporter acumen. I love watching her work and predict Ms. Duncan is headed for the big, BIG time sooner rather than later.

*Somebody called and said, "Hey Rich, I'll bet you the management at KQED probably doesn't even know who 'Gary Radnich is!" Which I then hesitated and laughed because I don't doubt it. That's no knock on Radnich quite the contrary because in my column on Tuesday saying he'd make for a great local interview show I naively assumed this would be a great chance for KQED (and Radnich too for that matter) to produce, create a program that would no doubt deliver instant buzz and move-the-needle material for a local outlet that DESPERATELY needs a jolt but yeah, KQED is clueless, the local PBS version of KRON with more money and overpaid managers and general doo-doo. What an ABOMINATION.

*I WAS LISTENING TO KGO RADIO THIS MORNING and some overly giggly, obnoxious woman with a cackle slightly more annoying than Jan Brady, was talking about, well, nothing, because I couldn't stand her and quickly turned the channel. Never thought I would miss Armstrong and Getty.

Jerimiah Crowe

*The most basic rule in radio; it's been around for years in fact is that THREE voices does not make for a good, certainly not technically because three voices doesn't translate well over the air no matter if the show is interesting --apparently, the doofus KNBR PD, Jerry Crowe didn't get the memo.

*SEX Appeal need not only be physical beauty and admiration. That's a given. Your presence and disposition is just as important. There's a significant buzz factor involved when the object of your gaze and feel is someone who brings pleasure to you not just on the screen but off too. Ladies and Gentlemen I bring you the splendor of KTVU anchor/reporter, Cristina Rendon.

JUST SIMPLY --OH.MY.GOD.

Cristina Rendon

*Over at the station on the Embarcadero not named KRON with Mickey Mouse and Circle7 branding, they continue to talk about the producer guy who continues to act "weirdly" behind the camera when a reporter is doing a live shot from the newsroom. It's particularly disturbing because the guy not only looks bizarre but he shakes his head and looks like some nut case from the Tenderloin --the suits at KGO are aware and are hellbent in telling the guy to knock it off but he's way up there on the seniority list so everyone is confused.

My suggestion: everyone take a deep breath and sing Happy Birthday to Trixie. Happy 45th!
