To...Gasia was great when she first started at KTVU. To me, her coming-out party was when she brilliantly covered the San Bruno gas explosion. She was the only one at the anchor desk for at least the first two hours and she delivered - totally on top of the story without being overly dramatic or repeating herself. It's pretty challenging to do unscripted "real breaking news" and she made it look easy. I think Ama Daetz is one of the few anchors locally that seems capable of handling that kinda stuff.<br /><br />F**king Fox has ruined Gasia.<br />Perlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08929816349445424142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-40174396812370036622015-12-10T07:29:35.392-08:002015-12-10T07:29:35.392-08:00To Gulen's credit, Loring is the bigger headac...To Gulen's credit, Loring is the bigger headache. The newsroom folks LOATHE her, primarily because she frequently doesn't know what she's doing and comes off extremely manic-depressive. Very hot and cold. Very unstable. You never know what you're going to get from her at any given moment. However, the rank and file do a ton of butt kissing to her face because they're afraid of getting canned due to Loring's relationship with Burton. As a result, Loring thinks she's loved and super popular and the morning newsroom folk continue to mill around pretending to be happy when they are in fact...very, very, VERY miserable.

I would sometimes look to see if adorable Lisa was filling or Sue Hall who I respect as a hard worker was in for the Gouhl. You gotta admit KGO has a knack for finding hipsters for our increasingly hipster market (look at the pix while listening to iTunes on your phone).<br /> <br />If we get Gasia some miniskirts and leave the sound off she might be tolerable.

I think Jan Wahl is such a creature. Does she have any fans other than herself? Gross is Grossly a bore. But he must have an audience, otherwise? Back to Cheryl Jennings; I found her to have great class and grace, and she strikes me as genuine. I don't think she is an act. <br />KGO once had Gene Burns and Pete Wilson (was it Pete? the guy around noon), both the best talk show hosts you could ask for. Oh, did Gene spoil us! These locals at the moment are generally are so bad, Good grief, I ended up trying even Glen Beck. Savage has a brilliant mind, but me thinks you overlook how he distorts it to contort extreme and irrational positions aimed at his flock.

One second he's throwing out opinions off the top of his head and the next he's doing a commercial for some trinket. At times, you don't know what your listening to, but it makes the show sound like one long commercial. It also doesn't help that he keeps passing himself off as a football expert who is then mysteriously silent when actual experts (like Todd Husak this week) come on and contradict what he just said. Like I said, I used to enjoy Larry, but he just seems like some bloated, unprepared, cash-grab version of himself. <br /><br />PS Larry - do you want to defend Kap for his three 4th quarter turnovers in the 2014 NFC championship game?
