Whoa, .23 blood alcohol level. Pretty drunk.

Where are those Fox 9 investigators now, blowing the lid off of drinking scandals with U of M players and at the State Capitol?

She enjoys golf, snow skiing, water skiing, reading and jet-setting all over the globe.

But doesn’t mention her love of the booze.

Also Beth, scale back on the lipstick.

“Tonight at 10: Our own FOX9 reporters gone wild. Are your children safe?”

Tom Lydon is tanned, rested and ready.

I think she’s retro-hip, a nice throwback to good-old/bad-old days of roaring drunk news anchors like Stan Turner and pre-Enlightenment Shelby.

I say drink up, sister, but take a cab!

Too bad it wasn’t dogfights and racketeer gambling among the reporters over at the station.

At least Kerri Miller is stiff enough to handle being sober….

I think Bx is a stevemarsh alias.

I feel somewhat sorry for McDonough, who gets the full “public figure” treatment where we all gossip and laugh about her personal foibles, but who is only in the public eye because her employment places her there in order to read the news about “public figures” to us. Most public figures gain their notoriety because of something they’ve done to attract it, while the talking heads of news gain their notoriety because of their public role of talking about public figures.

That’s not to mean any disrespect for them – just that sometimes it seems unfair that we all feel entitled to play keep-away with their dirty laundry just like they were a Randy Moss or an Eleanor Mondale or a Ry Cooder.

You go girl! ….Hope you have learned your lesson though! This make make it a little more complicated for her to continue as their “Crime” reporter at Fox 9. I guess she’ll know the ins and outs of the system now, as she’s spent a night in the slammer.

I also agree with another post, lighten up on the lipstick and the rouge.
