For the first few days,people were curious.But they've known for years that she's a lightweight.It won't be long before we see her doing a lounge act atop a piano,a la Connie Chung. Hell, they're all lightweights......from Cronkite on down. England's got it right on this job. They call them "newreaders" which is an accurate description of what they do. Some are more pleasent and look more professional reading the news than others but reading is all they do. It's a joke on us all that people give them so much importance. No group of people in the U.S. is more overpaid and more overtouted for what they do. No one.

I think the Don Henley described these folks pretty well in "Dirty Laundry"

Dirty Laundry - Don Henley
I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something that I can use
People love it when you lose
They love dirty laundry

Well I could have been an actor
But I wound up here
I just have to look good
I don't have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
We need dirty laundry

We got the bubble-headed bleach blonde
Comes on at five
She can tell ya 'bout the plane crash
With a gleam in her eye
It's int'resting when people die
Give us dirty laundry



Well I guess life does imitate art after all.
