It was -- without question -- deliberate. As I saw working on the Burbank studio lot, the anchors typically keep their coats somewhere easily accesible. During earthquake, brushfire, or car chase coverage, they choose not to wear them (they could easily be slipped on -- it is not as if anchors have a fireman's pole they slide down in a news crisis -- they have time to get their nose powdered, but not to put on business attire?), many even rolling up their respective shirt sleeves to offer the illusion that the people whose primary job is to read off a prompter and/or regurgitate information fed to them via an earpiece were actually hard-at-work. I used to call this the Paul Moyer method, because in my lifetime I've never seen a man make more out of a nonevent than he. > On Wednesday, December 22, 2010 12:09:56 AM UTC-5, TVG wrote: >> >> On Wed, Dec 22, 2010 at 12:02 AM, stannc <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> >>> Here's video of WSOC returning to the air tonight: >>> http://www.wsoctv.com/video/26211753/index.html >>> >> >> I don't mean to be unkind to people who were put through a terrible >> situation but could the GM of the station throw on a tie or a jacket before >> going on the air to discuss what happened?
