She of the Well-Toned Arms

Last week, Martha MacCallum filled in on various shows. She went bare-shouldered on many of them.




Few newsladies can pull off the sleeveless look better than Martha, as the above caps show.

Q&A with Liz Claman

Trader Daily has a Q&A with FBN's Liz Claman.


Liz talks about her recent interview with business titans Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Bill Gates.

Julie Banderas Reports on the Purple Heart Forever Stamp

On the weekend edition of the Fox Report yesterday, Julie Banderas reported on the unveiling of the new Purple Heart Forever Stamp.


The stamp is intended to honor those who were killed or wounded in America's wars.

It should be a crime for Julie Banderas to have so little airtime.

The Women of TV News Cover the Kentucky Derby

The 2011 Kentucky Derby is tomorrow, and some of the women of TV news are in Louisville, Kentucky, to cover the event. And as the caps below show, they brought their big hats-a Kentucky Derby tradition-with them.

FNC's Courtney Friel was reporting from Churchill Downs in a floral-print dress and white hat.


The Weather Channel's Stephanie Abrams was also there, but sporting a much more subdued wardrobe than Courtney:  A pink ensemble and a black hat.


Whether their fashion is gaudy or muted, the ladies of TV news will be sure to impress in Kentucky.

Erin Burnett Says Goodbye to CNBC

TVNewser's Chris Ariens has the video of Erin Burnett's sign-off from CNBC.

The sign-off featured some highlights from Erin's time at CNBC.  Erin gave some rather strange gifts to her co-anchor Mark Haines, including Cheetohs lip gloss and camel magnets.  The segment ended with a choked-up Erin saying good-bye to her CNBC viewers one last time.

But don't worry, Erin fans.  She will begin her career with CNN-where she will anchor a weekday news show-next month.

Along with Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace and FNC contributor Juan Williams, Shannon will be asking the candidates questions on important political issues.

Great job grilling the former Pakistani leader, Lara!

Kimberly Guilfoyle Talks the Webbys

On FNC's live streaming webcast, host Kimberly Guilfoyle interviewed David-Michele Davies, the Executive Director of the Webby Awards, which honors online creations in categories ranging from games to political websites.

It's a cool interview in which the beautiful Kimberly shows her playful side.   

Could Morning Joe Move to CBS?, Part Deux

TVNewser's Alex Weprin weighs in on Colby Hall's speculation that Morning Joe co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski could move to CBS.

Weprin thinks that such a move would be unlikely, given that Scarborough is still with the network after his previous contract expired in March, the same month that Starbucks agreed to a long-term sponsorship of Morning Joe.  If there was any real possibility that Joe would leave, Weprin argues, Starbucks wouldn't have made such a move.

Personally, I think they'll stay with MSNBC.

Q&A with Shannon Bream

Southern Views Magazine has a Q&A with FNC's Shannon Bream.

Shannon talks about her time at Liberty University, her transition from law to journalism, and how her competition in the Miss USA and Miss America pageants have helped her career.

Shannon Bream is a drop-dead gorgeous woman with brains to match.

UPDATE:  For you fans of Shannon, she will be providing analysis during FNC's coverage of the Republican presidential debate on Thursday.

Could Morning Joe Move to CBS?

Mediaite's Colby Hall writes about the possibility of Morning Joe jumping networks from MSNBC to CBS.


This is the key paragraph of Hall's post:

So would Morning Joe and Mika help change CBS fortunes? Maybe, but they would probably have to change the show significantly from its primarily insider political buzz to appeal to a broader audience. But in the end, CBS demonstrated that they could change the entire morning anchor team without really changing the ratings so they may decide that with a bold move like this, they really have nothing to lose.

Also, what would a move to CBS do for MSNBC's morning ratings?  Morning Joe has been beating CNN's American Morning on a regular basis.  Would the loss of Joe and Mika send MSNBC back into last place?  Likely.

S.E. Cupp's Sunday Routine

Sunday's edition of the New York Times featured a look at FNC contributor S.E. Cupp's "Sunday Routine."

S.E.'s Sunday Routine in a nutshell?  Watching NASCAR. 

In other words, the best way to spend a Sunday, in the opinion of this NASCAR fan.

Another Weekend of Fill Ins on Fox & Friends Weekend

With Alisyn Camerota still doing weekday duty, Juliet Huddy and Heather Nauert filled in on the weekend edition of Fox & Friends this weekend.

On Saturday, Juliet Huddy wowed viewers in a blue dress that is perfect for a night on the town.


And on Sunday, FNC brought in ex-FNC'er (now anchor at NYC's local Fox station, WNYW) Heather Nauert, who looked pretty in pink.


A rather stark contrast to Dave Briggs's geeky bowtie.
