Female anchorpersons on Fox News
Has anyone ever noticed that on Fox News, the female anchorpersons are lit up like they would be on a movie set? The males appearing on Fox do not appear this way. Every time one of these girls pops on the light is so intense that you can see the camera lights reflected in their eyeballs. I'll have to look for pictures of this.

Has anyone noticed how Fox News anchors are made up and lit more like they're on a show about modeling than a news show? Even light semi-newsy shows like NBC's Today show are not like this.

3. RW men are all one step from the cave. Makes perfect sense that they'd
have to light up the titties to keep them pacified.

6. Seems like (nearly ) all TV newscasters (CNN, the networks,etc)
even the men wear a lot of makeup - unless they are outside covering a hurricane.

I don't know about FOX - I don't watch it.

Everyone knows exactly who I'm talking about.

8. Yup, I've noticed

And Fox has an unsually high number of blondes who do the news casts, and you are right they are lit up, also some of them use really bright lip gloss, it's all probably a subtle way to attract more ratings from males

12. Come one now
do you really think Britt Hume could get LAID in high school? Bill O'Reilly? Yeah right. I am pretty sure Hannity is gay. They put these "Barbies" on display because it's the righties fantasy, and fanstasy is all they ever did. I am sure Neil Cavuto never nailed a homecoming queen..............

10. Is the one on the left an anchor?
I just found this on my search on the web. I don't know if she's a Fox newsperson or not. She does have a conservative dress on, if one ignores the fact it's about half a foot above the knee.

11. I haven't watched Fox for a few years, but
Edited on Mon Mar-28-05 08:07 PM by BuyingThyme
one of those women showed up on MSNBC (or CNBC?) with Ron Reagan.

She still scares me, but she's not so glittery anymore.

17. And they're taught to sit with their legs crossed to the side
I'll bet they'll all need hip replacements when they begin to age a little.
The lip gloss is purchased by the barrel. It's not attractive on some of the older gals, though, like Jane Hall on that media watch program.

15. Media hoes. I would dare to say that they wouldn't stand 1
one minute with Janine, Randi, Al, nor Mike... that's the sad part... they are empty, and try to pass themselves off as someone who has a clue. Sadder is that half of the frigging country buys it.

16. Pretty soon Fox' "girls" will be wearing skimpy revealing tops
with all their anatomy shown in relief, a la Charlie's Angels from the 70's.

T&A, baby ... T&A

18. It's appealing to their "Christian" base
The Conservative Evangelicals like their female Faux News anchors to look like strippers. It's a "Fundie" thing.............
