WE CRAVE SEX. It is ingrained in our society from the breakfast room to the board room. It's in our blood --and that includes every facet of life. Personal, professional, international, national, local, and just about every walk of life including media too.
So I get fingered for stating the obvious?
Excuse me but I was, and still am, only acknowledging the obvious and it's not that just me. I have nothing to apologize for and I won't. Respect? Of course. Everyone gets respect here and always has. I didn't reinvent the wheel I just got singled out because I'm an easy target.
And like I said, sex is us, always will be us, whether we like it or not and that includes our TV News anchors and reporters and it's men and women, but you knew that. I'm just reminding you.
Need further proof?
Ba da bing.
Hey. I saw the singer Jewel anchoring the KTVU2 news this morning

ReplyDeleteNo one is threatening his "free speech". He can publish pretty much what he wants on his blog. 29 people who don't appreciate his pitting of one woman against another,presumably because that's all women do, can and have signed a letter,expressing their disgust. It isn't actionable,in the legal sense,unless he publishes defamatory information about someone's personal life(male or female) that is false ,and he knew or should have known it was false.(See NY Times v. Sullivan, "careless disregard for truth or falsity) The newswomen in question are all public figures,so it would be very difficult to sue for defamation. The first amendment, should you ever read it, only protects the speaker from government action trying to silence them. A letter expressing dismay at certain themes and language doesn't trigger any first amendment issue. I think it's interesting not because of who signed it, but because of who didn't, and how long it took them to write it.
DeleteOnce again, you are right on, Rich! I mean, who is the most famous Weather Girl in the whole world? It is Yanet Garcia [google her if you don't know who she is]. She is a weather forecaster in mexico, and has recently been here in the Bay area, visiting. She is well known for her insane BUTT. Again, google her and you can't miss it. It is the only weather forecast, that if you watch it, after watching it, you still don't know what the weather was, because of being distracted! And yet, as those who signed the disgusting letter, seem to say, that there is no sex in media. I mean, just look at KGO. They actually have a RULE that says women must wear heels when on air! You know that, Rich! Why do they have that rule, if there is nothing sexual about it? Again, they know that sex sells, so even something as simple as women wearing high heels on air, could mean a few extra viewers. And as for Lisa Argen signing the letter, I mean, sure there has been talk about her "Winnebagos", but at her age, she should be thankful people are talking about them! But for me, the most glaring ommission to the list of those who signed the letter, was the fact that Horse Face, Jobina Fortson, did NOT sign it! Once again, thanks Rich, for doing a good job!
ReplyDeleteI look up that Weather Girl, she is smoking hot and has a huge following, I said this before the news in South Fla is very sensational, again with very pretty young women and many news cast times. Lots of old people down there in God's waiting room and waiting to die while watching the news. Hang in there Rich, this soom will pass and maybe some good will come out of it and more people will support you
Delete"Everyone gets resect here and always has." Except anyone who is politically conservative. They get no respect at all.
ReplyDeleteWe might not get respect...but we always get the last laugh.
DeleteYou got fingered??? You sly dog!!
ReplyDeleteHow do you know Rich doesn't respect conservatives? He has spoken with or interviewed Jim Eason, Michael Savage, the late Lee Rodgers, even complimented Melanie Morgan at one time or another.
ReplyDeleteNever remembered RL ranting about the Bushes or Reagan, as the disagreements were limited to policy, not personal mistreatment toward anyone they disagreed with. Reagan & the Bushes were GOPers who understood they had to listen and have empathy on occasion in order to lead a nation they genuinely cared about. The Traitor-in-Chief doesn't want a democracy any more. Proof is in all of his supporters among donors, media, and especially among pastors.
Never mind that the conservatives RL blasts smack of hypocrisy when they say they get no respect. Intentional provocation or trolling often leads to less respect. Way to look in the mirror, Rich!
