Reply #7: I remember seeing a print story about CNN in the good old days, [View All]

[No Mandate Here.]

and the main point I remember was that the news anchors were hired for their experience and integrity, not their malleability and good looks. This was on both CNN and headline news. These were the days of Bernie Shaw, and others (senility sets in and I can't recall any other names)

Contrast that with the "bubbleheaded bleached blondes" on the network now. (This is a non gender specific remark, by the way. Hemmer's as bubbleheaded as anyone else.)
