WXII anchor answer cell while on the air

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Its Greensboro, NC for heaven's sake. What more do you expect.

Greensboro's a plenty big enough market, so I'd expect a pretty good amount. :)

However, I think it's a bit of a strange TV market.....if I recall, one of the affiliates doesn't even make a news effort.....

Hey, I know those people!
Geez, it's market 45 folks...
And channel 45, the ABC affiliate, does indeed, have no local news.
But hey, it's UHF.

Wow. I mean, everyone forgets sometimes, and by all means make a bit out of it when it does happen, but "I'm gonna get it while you do the weather" is entirely unacceptable.

That's a shame...Brian is a talented dude...wasn't he on WOWK at one point? Or maybe it was WBOY.

Hey, but at least they have something cool for the Christmas blooper tape, eh?

Bob...you ever see the weather guy on ABC 45/My? He seems like a drunk carney...
