Our local ABC station hired Stephanie Simoni two or three years ago. She’s on the early morning show. Just a matter of time before she gets the 5pm anchor job. She’s very cute and does a good job reporting. She’s not from Arkansas. Her last job was WJCL/Fox 28 News in Savannah.

For all those who appreciate the male form… [Mike Woods](http://harlemworldblog.wordpress.com/2008/10/08/fox-5-mike-woods-host-harlem-gala/), WNYW weather guy. They always find reasons to have him outside in workout gear - the man is _ **buff.** _ ---

Obviously personal preferences showing here but I’d be hard pressed to pick between any of the non-blonde females posted so far, all are clearly ahead of the three blondes (first three posts). ---

Cleveland has a bevy of newsbabes. My current favorites are: Melissa Reid from Fox 8: [Link](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tghqQWAfuQ) [Link](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9GFg7WDLVE) Sharon Reed from Channels 19 & 43 [Link](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPW8fzJtssU) My old favorite, Stacey Bell, just left the station to be with her husband, who at last report was an assistant coach for the NY Jets.

I don’t follow TV news too much, but I think our local news babe, [Heather Rowe](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60V2Hrh6UaM&feature=youtube_gdata_player) of KOLD 13 in Tucson is particularly fetching. ---

> [@mack](#): > > Dialed back the Elvira. Perfectly well put. And yeah, I wish she kept it dialed down like in those photos. She already has plenty to work with…but she is distractly hot, like the French woman linked to above, that watching the news is kinda pointless… ---
