KABC’s Leslie Lopez had just started doing her weather report this morning when she had an unexpected visitor. Her 2-year-old son Nolan decided he wanted to help her tell the viewers how hot it is going to be in LA through the Super Bowl.
When you are a mom of a toddler and you are doing weather in LA, you are prepared for anything and everything. So she picked him and kept giving the forecast like none of that ever happened.
That is what being a professional is all about. My hat is off to the meteorologist.
Oh, and I also love that he was wearing green pants, so he was part of the map.
I hope he comes back for more newscasts because I don’t feel bad about it being nearly 90 degrees tomorrow.
On January 28th, Jeff Zucker (like Hooker) celebrated nine years of destroying CNN. Today, his career there was destroyed because he is having sex with Allison Gollust, a co-worker, and didn’t share that information with human resources.
As part of the investigation into Chris Cuomo’s tenure at CNN, I was asked about a consensual relationship with my closest colleague, someone I have worked with for more than 20 years. I acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. I was required to disclose it when it began but I didn’t. I was wrong.
As a result, I am resigning today.
I came to CNN on January 28, 2013. Together, we had nine great years. I certainly wish my tenure here had ended differently. But it was an amazing run. And I loved every minute.
I am grateful to the thousands of incredibly talented CNN and Turner Sports employees who helped make this such a joy for me, and such a success for all of us. I wish each of you nothing but the best in the years ahead.
With gratitude and much love.
Jeff
Bye, Felicia. I hope the door hits him on the way out.
So many of my friends lost their jobs at CNN when he started. He felt that they weren’t needed so that he can kiss Donald Trump’s smelly, fat a$$. And on that note, I hope Zucker winds up working with Trump. They deserve each other.
I also hope CNN gets someone who will turn it back into a News Network again. Those were the good old days and something America needs.
Last week, Hoda Kotb tested positive for a breakthrough case of COVID-19. This week, she is back in the studio after two negative tests.
However, her co-anchor Savannah Guthrie is home with it. But that didn’t stop her from doing the news on Today today. Proving there are still some journalists left this country that news never stops. Not even for a deadly pandemic.
Canadians are some of the nicest people in the World. However, there is one thing that can make them tell someone what they really think. And that is terrible food.
The other day Global News Calgary’s Leslie Horton made artichoke dip for her co-anchors. Unfortunately, it was so bad that they did the second part of the word arti-choke.
Normally, they would have eaten it and not said a word because they are so nice. However, it burned their throats so badly that Scott Fee and Jordan Witzel had to tell her what they really thought. They were totally justified because she knew that she screwed up the recipe and still served it to them. That is some FUS.
At least in America, we don’t serve people food that is bad. That is because we will sue you if you do. Unless it is a Red State, and then they will shoot you.
What would you do if someone served you something that they knew tasted worse than sh!t?
Raymond Arroyo was on Laura Ingraham’s show yesterday, and he brought up the show Netflix show You to her. Well, the Fox News talking head thought it was about her.
When he mentioned that You did an episode about the measles, she couldn’t understand what he was talking about. She kept saying she never did an episode about the measles. This went back and forth several times, and she still didn’t get it. He thought, if he explained it is a Netflix show called You, the lightbulb would finally go off. It didn’t, and she thought it was called The Laura Ingraham Show.
Can someone explain to me why all these Fox viewers listen to her? Because to me, the COVIDiot just sounds like what happens when you take the COV away from that word.
I really hope Netflix finds a way to do something with this. And if they can’t come up with something by Sunday, I am sure Saturday Night Live will give them to use.
Oh, and I am not going to compare this to Abbott & Costello because they were brilliant, and she is not.
UPDATE: Raymond Arroyo says it was all planned on Twitter. He wrote, “My favorite part was that only regular viewers realized it was totally scripted.” I have two emojis to respond to that, and they are 🐮 and 💩.
