Ugly/Fat Chicks and Equal Rights

So you want your news anchors aethetically pleasing AND to deliver quality intensive reporting??? Get a grip. Anyways I personally find frosted hair, and capped teeth a little revulting....and I mean that in the same way men in Hooters shorts are revulting.

I worked at a small cable network for a short time, and almost broke down in tears the first day when I walked in on some freakish man putting on clown makeup in the mens rooms. Turned out he was our anchor. He liked to do his own makeup. A lot. The guys on the crew liked him because he used to have "tie day". He had a thing that he could only wear a tie on air once, and then it was ruined. So we got his hand me down, once worn silk ties. He's at Fox News now, and he's every bit as vain as any female anchors. So there are some odd standards for on air talent regardless of gender.

I think working in journalism, or news reporting of any sort should be about charisma and personality above short skirts and hair parts. Then again, there might be some people on the planet who didn't think Naked News was the most retarded concept ever.
