Proper attire on air.

Prescott Joe

I was horrified yesterday before the Suns playoff game, to find Brandon
Rudat/Lee on air during the 3TV newscast wearing a thread bare tee shirt and
jeans with holes in them. AZ family: setting new low standards and failing
to meet them.....
 
Thought it was interesting on KPNX to see the news reporters wearing Suns T-shirts and the sports guys in suit-and-tie after Game 2.

Nice of them to bring Bruce Cooper out of retirement as well.

LOL at mentioning Brandon's 'other' last name.
I believe this was before Game 2, Lee and Yetta Gibson were doing a remote. Lee wore a Suns shirt/tank top with his tattoo sleeves very prominent. Not that he'd ever have to show his arms during normal newscasts. There have been commercials (running/playing basketball) where viewers can see his tattoos.

I first saw Lee's tattoos when he was running in one of the marathons in Phoenix, covered by weekend GMAZ. He had short sleeves on (ready to run) and the tats were visible.
 
Personally, I think it would be perfectly fine for on-air staff to wear polo t-shirts and nice pants on-air. At least during the summer months.

One doesn't need to wear a suit or dress to report news credibly. Just talent. :cool:
