Real News, Real Faces
I'm really pissed off right now. On my way home from work I was listening to several morning radio programs. My favorite is usually Bob and Tom in the Morning, but when they go to commercial I flip stations, kinda like when watching TV.
Well I flipped to K105.3, which plays mostly up-to-date songs without going into the "I capped a Hoe last night for not going down" type of stuff. Just to catch the morning guy ripping into local News Anchors.
He was saying that there are no "hot" Anchors/Reporters in Lansing. One lady who called in thought Colthorp was kinda cute but couldn't think of any female hotties. The radio DJ's then started tearing apart my co-workers.
They named names of women I see and work with daily calling them "gross" and "disgusting" and "wouldn't touch that." They even called some of the guys "wax figures" and "fatty."
Who the fuck does a guy who calls himself "The Big Dog" think he is?! This is his picture and trust me you couldn't pay me enough to go near that slob.
The only local Anchor they found mildly attractive was the "girl on 53." Well no shit she seemed the best. She acts like she's still in college and is basically a joke. If you want your news from "hotties" than watch the E Network. You can look at fake bimbos in skimpy outfits while they tell you about Paris Hilton's latest shopping trip. If you want serious journalism then you respect poise and maturity.
I know first hand that the majority of the female talent at my station are a good-looking bunch. And I felt every insult they hurled like a punch to my gut. These are great people, who are just that, people. None of them are Prima Donnas who are in the biz to look cute on TV. They generally care about News and being perceived as credible. So excuse them for not sluting it up Mr. Big Dog.
As the sexiest Anchor in Lansing would say "K105.3, fucking done!"

Ah, try not to let it bother you too much. All local celebrities (and national ones) face harsh criticism -- it comes with the job. Besides, radio people go into radio because they're not hot enough for tv -- everyone knows that.
