You obviously don't work in show biz, then.
You'd have a more valid point IF the announcer on TTTT90 was not on air. He was , and so if the producers felt that adding a little color may add a little 'balance' to the show, then they would have found a little color. They would have hired someone off the street if they needed to (ALL OF THIS is speculation. I wasn't privy to the hiring meetings at Goodson in 1990).
Fair? Right? Politically Correct? I'll argue those points after I finish sending out my resume tape to major market jobs that I won't get because the weather team at KRAP already has 3 average looking white males.
