I think I just witnessed one of the Stupidest Newscaster Comments of all time - and this one came from a female brunette, not a bleach blonde.
6:00 Newscast on one of our local stations. As she finishes the first half of the newscast and they transition to the weather, they show the obligatory shot from their high aerial downtown camera showing a shot of clear weather and sparsely populated roadways in and out of downtown. She then says something like, "It looks like clear sailing for the people Who left their Offices at 5:00 or now and are headed home."
HUH? You mean the 80% of us who are under a Shelter at Home Order and those of us who are lucky enough to work from home and draw a pay check? Are you kidding Me?
Especially after you spent the first half of the newscast running COVID-19 related stories and their effect on the local community.
