Darcel Grimes and Frank Kracher together on the anchor desk again. Now that would be sweet!
Isreal…if their is one thing viewers do not give a flying fig about it is what other random people think.
When CNN covers a speech or debate, they don’t shove a mic in the crowd unless something insane is happening.
Mary Hunt was a solid reporter back in the days WLOS was still up on Macon Avenue. She now reps a pharaceutical company and raises two sons here in Asheville. She is one of the great people News 13 misses.
Obama Coverage was above average, That is scary! All Darcel did was talk for one minute and then took a pool camera shot. That is not even coverage. Now if they wanted to really cover it, they would have interviewed people coming in, got pubic opinion about what they were looking foward to hearing. Just because the picture and sound was clean should not constitute coverage. I heard they had three managers at the station while the "coverage took place", what the hell did they do to help the coverage? I’m sorry but to call what they did Sunday on My 40 coverage is just stupid. The viewing public deserved better than that. Although, at least they took it live. I will give them that. The other stations in the market didn’t even try so I give them a "pat on the back" for that.
I saw her at Fuddruckers once (this was a couple of years ago). I remember thinking she was REALLY skinny and hoping she was going to order a 1/2 pounder.
Can you imagine watching her eat a 1/2 pounder Fuddruckers burger? That’s one for the scrapbook.
I watched the MY40 broadcast of the Obama speech. Darcel did a good job hosting. The coverage was above average for WLOS – no technical problems!
Mary Hunt?
I’ve only seen Darcel in public twice, both times at Sam’s Club.People were watching her from afar, talking about her in hushed tones and asking clerks about her after she checked out. You’d have thought they were in the presence of a superstar.
And well, they were.
I saw her talking to Russ a lot. They seem like they really like each other.
More more we want more!!!!! You have other pics ash? Diva for Congress!
Mary (Hunt) Dunning visiting with Darcel Grimes at the Obama rally.
Hang out at Verizon. I saw her there trying to nail down the fine print in her contract. She totally used the news to push the deal, too: "I have to be in the chair in 30 minutes, can you guys move this along?"
