Default Dumb as a Stone

Before she became an anchor the twiggy female, Mikaya, did a breathless news story on a guy who makes water out of air. Duh, yeah. It is called dehumidifier plus faucet=water! An early tip off of IQ and lack of common knowledge. Since then she has shown she has no knowledge of US geography. I can't remember the exact reference she made to a state, referring to it as being in a part of the country in which it has never been located. Her guffaws are outlandish. I think someone at the station stepped up to the plate recently and advised her to tone it down. In common with most of the rest of the crew she has an affinity for leaving the "r" out February. I would also be happy if she would keep cleavage off the screen. Button up every day. Even an occasional reveal is too much.
Elzabeth has out worn those belts she used to be fond of and that is a good thing. Also the tops of those tall black boots have disappeared from the screen. Much more attractive and less distracting. I like her presentations.
Sorry to see Greg Fishel go. He was upbeat and entertaining. If he was hiding mental illness or depression, he did it well. I hope to see him return.
I like Deborah Morgan, but I see her as a bright and shiny innocent purveyor of whatever is placed in front of her. She goes with the flow.
Brian Mims had an interesting and enjoyable approach. I thought he was fine as an anchor.

I've only met one person in my entire life who pronounces the R and every February we had to hear about it for 28 days, save leap year then it was 29 days.

Now here come all the people who say the R.
