CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ACTING ANCHOR AT ABC 14!
Directions Magazine is doing a story about Jon Anderson leaving radio....perhaps they should consider doing a story about the acting anchor's life....she's come from one planet a whole new world!
The afternoon talk show host talked about studies of how distracting it is for people to watch women anchors because they were either too pretty, wore too much make up, too much jewelry, etc..., that men were were more 'informative' that if you watched the news and a man gave it, that you would glean more from a man than if a woman gave/read it.
Perhaps this is true, I've not read this study, nor do I know if a man had polled/created this study. I think that I would get as much from a commentary from Jayne Flores as I would from Jon Anderson and that it would be insulting to Jayne to say otherwise, jewelry, make-up or attire. I find it offensive and machismo and thought that this kind of thinking was(EEOC-wherefore art thou?)long gone?
I'm not sure I know the reasons Jon Anderson is off-island, but I'm so proud that one of our own is right out there holding her own with the rest of them, showing them that she's arrived. ABC 14's got the best local team ever, they've got Mana, Joy and Patrick, then, they're Jon, of course, the news just wouldn't be the same without him! Congratulations, ABC 14, You've come a long way in a short time!
