Maybe we need one of these on the OT....

And of course, after 20 years some virtue signaling white knight is offended
quote:

A radio station in Little Rock, Arkansas, is making negative waves online with its “Babe Bracket,” a long-running contest that ranks the female reporters and news anchors in the area by attractiveness. One local TV news director wrote a blog post asking that it finally be stopped.

quote:

“The days of referring to educated women who serve as role models to our children as ‘babes’ are over. It’s time to evolve with the times,” said KARK news director Austin Kellerman. “[These women] deserve to be celebrated — just not like this,” he said.

Here is the white knight in question...

quote:

The Babe Bracket runs on KABZ-FM 103.7. The hosts of its morning “Show With No Name” pit 16 women against each other and lets the show’s listeners vote on who makes it through each round. Last year, KATV weekend anchor-reporter Janelle Lilley “won.” The brackets are “sponsored” by Seductions Lingerie. And it’s been going on for over two decades, according to KABZ-FM’s program director, Justin Acri.

How those two broads came up against each other in the finals has voters baffled, Tom. The Cinderella story for Winnie Wright comes to a close today.

Always amazes me how left leaning individuals will tell everyone that what other people do is none of anyone else's business so long as they aren't hurting anyone.

Then turn right around try to tell anyone who does something they disagree with they shouldn't do something.

That aside, these women's attractiveness is part of what got them the job.

You think media outlets are gonna hire a 400 pound cow just because she's educated?

The selection committee jobbed Erin. Should've gotten the 2 seed.

Judging solely by the photos in the bracket, Janelle shouldn't have won.

Legit question, what have these women done outside of look pretty reading a teleprompter?

Any of them serious investigative journalists who have cracked major cases though brute hard work?

Austin thinks he’s going to win brownie points with feminists, when all they’re really going to do is make him their cuck. I think he already is.


If the roles were reversed, and you had hottest fireman, this would NEVER EVER make the news. My opinion is that if you want to be treated equal, you have your chance right here. Embrace it.

But they won’t, because they are walking talking hypocrites, the lot of them, and they know it.

The funny thing is Winnie was all about it last year, then she lost. Has been one of the more vocal reporters against it this week. She seems like a head case. A simple follow on Twitter suggests this.

Also those pictures don't do Janelle justice.


For the post part it's a popularity contest any way so that's why some of the better looking ones lose early.


Laura Montaverdi is fire. Awesome personality.


The whole state has gone insane on the issue though.
