First off, it's unreal how many weather updates they give you.

Ok, since they apparently don't have a sports guy, which is pathetic in itself, Emily Turner is talking about this weekends series and referred to Raph Rhymes as "Raph" said like Ralph with no L. Like raft with no T. How the frick do you mess that up if youre the one who is giving the report?? Plus she's not that far removed from being an LSU athlete herself so you'd think she'd be familiar enough with the teams to get a guy as popular as Raph's name right.

I don't believe in the "shite happens" line when you're a local reporter, covering one of the local teams top player.

I'm sure she knows his name, but it's not like she wrote the copy for the story. She's reading a teleprompter with info. she's never seen, and went thru it to fast....she made a mistake. Simmer down.

Or maybe she doesn't like him, and did it on purpose. Either way, you were one of about thirty people that were watching that broadcast.

I hate that Fox 44 News commercial where Turner starts to tear up when talking about her transition from California to Baton Rouge.
