Really dumb interviewer

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

i've seen a lot worse, but she does have a couple of er... attributes, that give her the potential to be a really, really dumb blonde type.

edit: you know, in a very few years, people who are wearing sunglasses like that guy is wearing are going to be asking themselves, "what was i thinking?".

you just watch.

It wasn't a bad interview. She needs better mic awareness.

I have to commend the interviewee for not looking where I would be looking through out the entire interview. Then again, we have no idea where he is really looking with the silly sunglasses.

Some small local station using interns for something most people don't care about and few people watch.

TV news doesn't have much to do with news. TV reporters are not really anything like to actual reporters. They're just "personalities."
