Are news reporters jealous of the quirky weatherman?

Real TV news

When I visit a new city, I always look forward to seeing what the local news shows look like. They’re not as handsome as the guys here in Los Angeles…and sometimes they’re….dowdy. But the best part is how the local Weather Reporter tries to outdo the weather, by dressing oddly, speaking loudly and generally acting oddly.

And each weatherman or weatherwoman tries to outclass the other Weather Reporters on other stations. I wonder if the regular News reporters are secretly jealous of Weathermen’s blue screen and colorful effects, or whether they just make the weather guys sit at the Kiddie Table…:)

Here’s how to buy this or any cartoon about Television for powerpoint, textbooks, newsletters, blogs, Chicken Soup books, etc. My TV Cartoons have been published in a variety of venues. I also review TV shows here.
