Its Monsoon Season, time for stupid local news stories!

L

Legend City

Oh, yes, Channel 12, showing videos of past damage, and we can look forward to some other local ninnies standing in puddles ("Its just like the beach!") and wearing slickers and doing endless, breathless, completely stupid stories.

Local news in Phoenix, where intellect went to die.

Is it raining where you are?
 
Hey, don't knock it until you've tried it!! ;)

I still remember that glorious August evening (sunsational, as Jimmy Q. would say) when I first saw Tram Mai--donning rubbers and a rain slicker--standing in the raging Monsoonal flood waters on a lonely street in Phoenix, saving the hapless souls who dared to defy the Monsoon! She stood valiant, brave and true as she reported on every inch of raging water. Such bravery!!! ;D

That act of bravery thrust Tram into the morning anchor chair for that "perfect morning blend."

I thank God every day for those brave men and women who are not cowards in the face of Mother Nature's fury and wrath!! They dare to stand in the way of deadly hurricanes Monsoon storms, risking life and limb their perfectly coiffed haridos in order to bring us the news!!

How dare you mock their bravery, sir. I demand an apology--now!!! ;D

No monsoon yet, but it could strike at any moment, and the brave men and women of the media will stop at nothing to bring you the breaking weather news!!!
 
I can't wait for another fascinating 1 hour interview with Monte from KyCo roofing on KTAR, and guess what? He is a sponsor.


"It just gets deeper and deeper, its like the ocean" Tram Mai

"Monte is like crazy about quality. Did you know he can like kill bugs as well? Yeah, fer sure. So totally radical. We should do a story on that during a monsoon storm!!"

-Tram Mai, overheard in the Mc12 break room
 
Or we could have Kim Covington running across the screen, screaming "Denzel! Denzel! Denzel!" when Denzel Washington was in town. :D

--actually happened during 12 News Morning Edition
 
Maybe we can convince Her Highness the Gubinator to sign a Stupid Newscaster Law similar to the Stupid Motorist Law.

Nah, she's too busy arguing with her fellow Republican lawmakers! Could you imagine if this same scenario had played out with Janet N. around?!?
 
Its even funnier in HD!

Patty's makeup session is longer than the ones for the actors in "Planet of the Apes"

Oh, where is Cater Lee and her famous report "Are you having a bad hair day?"
 
Maybe the 'veteran' newscasters need to use that new 'digital' makeup kit from Paper Bag Cosmetics.
 
What gets me is when fox 10 does their weather bulletin graphics like its a big breaking story,they have a small squad of reporters out in different parts of the valley like it some hurricane or something.

Fox10's normal weather graphics are over the top -- as if the weather varies all that much in the Valley!
 
Channel 10: a cake baked with too much Idol sweetness, a really weird-looking set of flashing lights, and a few Sparks on the top to add to the frills.

10 needs to cut back on the graphics - and the Idol. I'd be watching another 9pm news if it weren't 3's.
 
I'm in Seattle this weekend. The local Fox affiliate here looks positively professional compared to Fox 10. It's still a Fox "hip" local newscast, but with far less flash in the graphics and, thus, much more intelligent.
 
This just in: Someone left a cake out in the rain.

Local officials worried that we may never have that recipe again!

Hey Legend City --
Is that Johnny as in LaRue in the quote at the bottom of your post?
A Second City Sophisticate on the Board! You go guy! ;D
 
Don't eat the ribs, they are poisoned!

Yep, big SCTV geek. (That's right Edna)
