Too contrived, if it is so.

5. I'm as fine as frog hair, Rick.
Good to hear from you. I hope you are well, too. Yes, her name is indeed Rita and she is a tad too bubbly for disaster coverage. I cringe at the thought that she is covering Galveston during this latest hurricane, and that is where the great Dan Rather got his boost during his coverage of Hurricane Carla in September, 1961. Apples and oranges, though.

2. What's that red think on the left side of his face? Another injury?
He's in his most "pissed face" mood in this pix..but there's that thing on his face. :shrug:

4. Rita Crosby is an MSNBC reporter.. not much liked here on DU because
she is blonde and a little round and has a husky voice.

9. Well, that's not why I can't stand her.
Personally I like 'em blonde and a little round, but admit that that voice is annoying. Like Brenda Vacaro with laryngitis.

But while I can't stand her is because she's another in an endless line of MSM talking heads and RW apologists who have no talent yet were given their own show. It's even more galling that her ads portrayal her as a hard-hitting reporter who allegedly asks questions no one else will, yet her show (without the recent hurricane coverage) has been strictly missing white people and celebrity tabloid.

11. Yes, you are right on what she reports, but somehow her voice and looks
always come into it.

10. Thanks. I shoulda known it was something .like that.
The truth of the matter is that I haven't watched TV for the past 7~8 years (LITERALLY!!). Instead, I have a GOOD broadband connection, and that puts me head and shoulders above all the ditto-heads. AND, I have DU!!:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: (And I also stand by my "Ritalin" crack!).
