Re: female newscasters. Does every female newscaster have to be young and glamorous? The chat news shows in the morning shows expose legs up to the thighs. Tasteless I say. Is a woman not particularly young and glamorous not considered competent to broadcast news if she is over 35, a bit thick in the waist and modestly attired out of the running? Surpised the networks have't been sued for discriminatory hiring.
