WASHINGTON POST ^ | Wednesday, April 16, 2003

She won't last a year in that slot. The "I am not sneering--I just smell something bad" look that perpetually haunts her face is just not made for television.

Nice take on Paula's undisguised arrogance.

[Stentor]

She's a reasonably attractive blonde

That Jack O Lantern smile of hers creeps me out. I've seen more relaxed looking meth injectors.

[wku man]

What's a Paula Zahn? I had a CNN once, but I took some antibiotics and it went away.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[catpuppy]

Thank you. That arrogance seems to appear regardless of the topic or guest. Her "thanks for being with us" almost always seems to lack sincerity as it is delivered in a monotone, perfunctory manner. I wonder if she enjoys her job.

[Willie Green]

Zahn is sexier and prettier than Chung.

I always preferred Joan Lunden to either of those two.

Whatever happened to her?

Joan?

Fifty two year old Joan is expecting twins in June by a surrogate mother.

Joan is the mother of three daughters, ages 15, 19 and 22.

I'm sure it will be fun for the twins to have a seventy year old mother at their graduation.

I'm sure it will be fun for the twins to have a seventy year old mother at their graduation.

It probably will be fun.
Graduations are usually festive occasions.

ON THE 8 P.M. SLOT FOR CNN BEFORE THE WAR WE HAD CONNIE CHUNG. BEFORE THAT IT WAS WOLF BLITZER AND BEFORE WOLF I DON'T REMEMBER.
I remember watching Crossfire when it first started, it had Pat Buchanan and Washington Post Columnist Tom Braden, who also wrote the book 8 Is Enough. That was in the early days and Crossfire then was the show to watch, it was great.
Funny thing about Braden was, the longer he was on the show the more he started agreeing with Pat Buchanan, finally they canned him and brought forth a more liberal lefty. Never saw Braden again on another show and I had gotten where I really liked him, he was a rough weather beaten guy who had paid his dues.

[njmaugbill]

I've removed CNN from my TVs.

Not in my living room

Yep, I'm sure Joan will be bursting with energy for the grads.

[A CA Guy]

"Zahn" in prime time "sound of zipper opening", more stimmulating television.

"Great Promo!"
