Your Local MSM at work...a metaphor:

[PCIntern]

This is Alycia Lane: she's a CBS (!) anchor here in Philly. She's obviously gorgeous, affable-on-TV, known to be a real party animal who had the temerity to send bikini pics to an ex who was married to a lady who inconveniently for all concerned, opened the e-mail and then it hit the fan...

So this paragon of virtue, both journalistic and moral, was in NYC and allegedly punched a female, plainclothes police officer in the face and called her a slur reserved for lesbians. She spent a good while in jail as one would expect, and was released. Here is a pic of her when she got out:




Ladies, you want to hire her makeup and hair people for that 'special occasion', wouldn't you say?


So guess what she did almost first thing:

She called Governor Rendell, ostensibly to say hello, I suppose.

From the Philadelphia Daily News:

After being sprung from a New York City jail cell Sunday night, one of CBS 3 anchor Alycia Lane's first orders of business was to track down the cell phone number of Gov. Ed Rendell, sources say.

Rendell's spokesman Chuck Ardo confirmed this afternoon that Lane reached Rendell by phone Sunday night to "make sure he knew her side of the story because he is an opinion maker and runs around in influential circles."

"I think she knew better than to ask him to intervene," Ardo said when we asked whether the anchorwoman requested Rendell lobby any New York law enforcement or court officials on her behalf. "He will not, he would not, and he has not been asked to," Ardo said about whether Rendell planned to get involved in Lane's case.

Sources tell us Lane was also hoping to contact state Sen. Vince Fumo at some point after her release. Reached earlier, Fumo spokesman Gary Tuma said he had no knowledge of any outreach from Lane to Fumo and he would look into it. He has not yet gotten back to us.

Where to start...well, you could talk about the shallow vacuousness of local TV anchors, you could talk about the fact that glamor is a function of chemicals and well-used brushes and combs, you could talk about the fact that MSM is in bed with the power elite and one hand must be washing the other on a continuous basis, you could talk about the fact that, well, these people are human and that they make mistakes and get in big trouble, written up all over the place and skewered by their own poorly-crafted journalism.

I could go on and on but I have to get dressed and go to a real job.

1. This is further proof

that what you see on
the MSM is not the real
thing. It has been painted,
filtered, and lit in a
certain way to appear
acceptable, even desirable.
That goes for the 'news'
they report too.

2. Give thanks for the miracle of make up

It's all made up at MSM anyway.

What I will never understand is the sense of self importance among these vacuous bimbo anchors.

3. from the time they were 'head cheerleaders'

they've been told that they're the most charismatic, beautiful, star-quality...etc.

Like prima-donna athletes...told from the time they're 7 years old that they're the best...that's why they can crap all over the public these days...

4. They use wasted DNA like this because Americans suck it up

If it didn't work, a different approach would be used.

5. Ed Zachary...

I remember when they first dropped the camera level down and had the women wearing short skirts....I found that I couldn't stop looking at the set, bad boy that I am...

Now, they're gonna have to take their tops off for me to pay attention to their vacuousness, and I think even they won't be doing that...although you never know. Especially during sweeps week.
