SPOILER ALERT: I still have my $10.
Remember the bygone era of the "Big Three" anchors in which almost everybody could easily rattle off the names of the major network anchors? Dan Rather of CBS, Tom Brokaw of NBC, and Peter Jennings of ABC? Well, as you can see in this video, those glory years for the network news are long over. To illustrate this, on April 29, 2023 I offered $10 to people I met at the Ft. Lauderdale Swap Shop to name for me all three anchors of those same networks.
Yes, my mom was watching him last night (not sure, she normally watched Muir on ABC). I always think his head looks like a lightbulb.

LOL.
Hey PJ, read post 6 and pay up. I say you owe ImJustAnotherOkie $10.
My wife has ABC news on when we’re eating dinner, so I know David Muir. You know, the one who tries to appear serious and winds up looking like he’s passing a kidney stone.
I might go back to the Swap Shop soon with another question. I think I know what I will be asking but if anybody has any suggestions.....
Lovely Broward county FL. Al Franken does videos now?
This ain’t the 60s, the Dan Rather’s the Huntley Brinkley’s the Commie-Cronkite whatever.. there must be 25 or 30 Anchors all told... maybe more.
You got me.
There’s a young guy on ABC, a blonde female on CBS and a black guy on NBC.
Don’t know their names.

Your $$ would have been safe if you talked to me. Years ago, Rush said, shut them off. I did & haven’t been back.

dan rather peter jennings tom brokaw
CBS: Some Woman... that talks with her hands flailing around like she was retard...
Elon Musk inspired my tan. Really! Sometime back I saw a pic of Musk with his shirt off with a really sickly white pallor on his skin. It looked so unhealthy (lack of Vitamin D) that I resolved that I would try to get sun every day even if it meant just sitting outside shirtless for 15 to 20 minutes daily. It has now become a habit of mine. I don't get bored sitting outside because I also listen to my audio books out there.
I think I am going to offer FIFTY DOLLARS for the correct answers to my next question.
Check
I couldn’t name one. Other than live college football, I have literally not watched network TV since the 20th century.
Up here in MI, it takes me from Now until mid july to acquire it, and it starts fading by mid september!! Maybe I'll do better in the next life and move there early on!!
I can usually spot tourists from the Midwest by their skin coloration. Easiest of all to spot are tourists from Europe since their skin has the burnt red color to it. Oh, and because for some weird reason all the European men wear bikini bottoms for bathing suits.
lol...
I’m an avid kiteboarder so board shorts will always be the anything over 65 degrees swag for me!! even at work if its not a union job!!
