Agreed. And I think you're right, "terrified" is a fair description.

It's really not their fault. They were tossed in to an unfortunate position. However, I think Boris K. (Sorry. I can't spell his last name) is very good.

>>>I think Boris K. is very good.<<<

I wonder if his having done a lot of radio made any difference??

As a viewer, it shouldn't have happened. I know Joe likes to joke around. However, he certainly crossed the line.

As a broadcaster, Mr. Snedeker should be pulled from the air for at least a week and also publicly apologize to Ms. Supon on the air. If not to the working mothers out there.

Get serious Mr. Snedeker and do your job.

Actually, I didn't make it clear that I was just referring the CV cartoon. I didn't read the TL or TT reports of the incident. Although I did feel that the CV article was a little too sensationalized, but, IMO, that's just the CV style.
