I'm gonna punch you in the ovary, that's what I'm gonna do. A straight shot. Right to the babymaker.

As layoffs and early retirements alter Boston's television newsrooms, the traditional anchorman is becoming a minority and newscasts are getting female makeovers.
Men have been leaving their anchor jobs because of budget cuts forced by the recession and changes in direction at the stations, and women are being elevated to more prominent roles. At WHDH-TV (Channel 7) the marquee anchor duo is Frances Rivera and Kim Khazei. At Univision Boston, an all-female team anchors and reports the news. At NECN, women anchor all weekend newscasts. Women have replaced male anchors on other stations' newscasts, as well.

Marjorie Eagan?
Yes.
It doesn’t matter anyhow...noboby watches the news on TV any more.
I’ll take Sarah Underwood, Maria Stephanos, Bianca Delagarza (sp) over Randy Price and Tom Ellis any day.
As long as they are cute, wear short skirts and cross and uncross their legs a lot, who cares?
They are just teleprompter readers anyway — just like our new fuhrer.
No wonder old Marg is jealous. Just look at her picture in The Herald next to her column. She's a liberal hag with a real Kenyan complex.
Let’s face it. American TV is geared mainly toward women. Just look at the primetime series and the commercials. I swear, auto advertising (unless it’s trucks) is geared 80% toward females. Cop and medical series are almost all female-oriented, right down to the endings consisting of what amounts to an in-episode music video to tug on the heartstrings. It’s ridiculous.
I saw a TV ad this weekend for a poker site. Three males are standing against a wall. Enter a woman who then knees the first two in the you-know-where. Both go down in pain. The third guy remains standing after being kneed. The voice then says “He has the best pair” or something to that degree.
as if the networks were serious news any more.
“look pretty girl” pretty much sums up local news
Essentially the old weather girl in the bikini has taken over all the teleprompter duties.
Well I can’t say I watch all that much news on the TV these days. I get most of my news from the Internet and talk radio. But a few weeks back, I happened to catch a local news program on the Channel 25 here in Boston (Fox affiliate) and it was all bad news. People dying in car wrecks, getting shot, getting arrested, etc., etc. Nothing really good to report at all except maybe the Celtics winning a basketball game. What struck me though was the female newscaster. Instead of sitting behind a desk, she was basically halfway up a spiral staircase in the studio and had a really short skirt and extreme high heels with tons of makeup and hair. If she wasn’t wearing an expensive business suit, she would have fit right in walking the streets in our local red light district.
I don't know, Detroit local stations have an abundance of what I call "white gay guy weather girls"...since getting rid of their all their old(mean spirited chauvinistic)white male anchors.
Being PC is just so...IN....not to mention...fabulous!
TV itself has become totally unwatchable....especially now that my favorite(screw PC) WEATHER GIRL, Sharon Resultan, is gone from the Weather Commercial Channel.
Went to bed with her every night...(so to speak).
Yet another example of...everything NBC touches turns to &%#%
I gave it up around 1981 as an exercise in stupidity.
I gave it up around 1981 as being an exercise in stupidity to watch teeheevee "news".

True enough...but if I did, it would be only for hot babes and tits.....with the sound off.
