Um, I'm honestly not sure what you're saying... Me mocking a story a day after it broke is really that hard to fathom? Or, what, exactly? It's not like it's the talk of a nation. Pick up a non-philly paper if you can...

Or maybe go listen to the Governer's take again, if that's more yer style. Really, I won't be offended...

So uh, where are the bikini shots?

You managed to unfunny a carnival of stupidity while also apparently missing a day and a half worth of news on the story. I know you've got to pad the quota and all, but ....

Was there any mention of her being drunk? Because seriously?..who shouts out that kind of egotistical blather unless they are either drunk on booze or drunk on power. And I promise you, she doesn't have enough power to be drunk on that.

Srsly, TCK, you really need to just stop doing the job that people are apparently so jealous of. Srsly.

Well that's a brilliant attitude.

Because, of course, all cops are just authoritarian assholes out to ruin your good time.

Someone's a fan, someone thinks their actions were justified, someone paid 11 dollars to watch them skulk around a burned-out NYC and feels unless they say something it'll have been in vain, etc.

That will not happen with this piece. It is beyond the realm of even remote possibility.

i don't get it. but then, i'm mostly Dutch. as a lad, the impression was given that dykes were there to be fingered so that you could become the town hero.

They didn't list this guy's profession. I'm gonna guess "full-time genius."

CBS 3 (KYW-TV) announced today that Alycia Lane has been released from her contract effective immediately.

CBS 3 President and General Manager Michael Colleran stated, "After assessing the overall impact of a series of incidents resulting from judgments she has made, we have concluded that it would be impossible for Alycia to continue to report the news as she, herself, has become the focus of so many news stories. We wish to make clear that we are not prejudging the outcome of the criminal case against Alycia that is pending in New York. We understand that Alycia expects to be fully vindicated in that proceeding. We hope that is the case and we wish her the best in all her future endeavors."

The inclusion of those would have made this article much better

Alycia Lane filed a praecipe to issue writ of summons, typically a precursor to a lawsuit, against CBS3 Tuesday in Common Pleas Court. Lane, and her attorney Paul Rosen, have requested to depose CBS3 President Michael Colleran and News Director Susan Schiller. The legal filing also asks for Lane's CBS3 personnel file as well as any documents related to her Jan. 7 termination and any documents that reference her ex-husbands Dino Calandriello, Jay Adkins, as well as Dr. Phil McGraw, on whose show she cried, Prince Albert of Monaco, whom the New York Post's Page Six reported she had flirted with, and of course Rich Eisen, the married NFL Network anchor to whom Lane e-mailed bikini pics of herself, therefore upsetting his wife Suzy Shuster. Any documents pertaining to Shuster are also being sought by Lane.

Lane and attorney Rosen have also asked for any documents or personnel files pertaining to the firing by CBS3 of "any other anchor or reporter of Latina descent, African-American descent or the descent of any other minority group."

Oddly enough, I read somewhere today that WWE just offered her a job as an announcer...

Not a joke...

Seems about where she should be
