WSMV NEWS QUESTION

[romer979fm]

yeah...I know...it's a TV question...but:

how long have Dan and Demetria been closing the 10pm newscast with a
"elbow bump" ? I just noticed it a few weeks ago, so they've probably
been doing this for five years or so.

This just happens to be one I know a little about. I asked Demetria recently when I was at lunch with she and Dan, and they kind of looked at each other, grinned and finally admitted it. It is a secret sign to their old co-hart, Bill Hall.

And I'm pretty sure they haven't been doing that much longer than two weeks.

(so romer is more observent than he thinks!)

My question is How is it that Romer watches the closing of the 10 pm news and is then on air at 5 am the next morning? Mere mortal man would need to sleep. I guess Romer does not sleep he waits.

--Don's right on it.

Radio Gods don't need sleep.

turns out Buddy was joking about the Bill Hall salute...so anyone know?

I was disapointed the other night Demetria was not there, Dan anchored solo, but he did not elbow bump himself.
