Channel 5's sad blogs

I just caught up to the official KTLA blogs written by four of the station's top news anchors. In theory they represent an admirable step in connecting the talking heads to viewers, but the execution—well, not so much. Seems the commitment just isn't there, and they might consider just killing the whole idea. Here are verbatim excerpts from each anchor's most recent entries, and the number of days since they were posted:

Leila Feinstein (5 days): We're making the announcement tonight on Prime News, but I thought that I would let you, my faithful blog readers, hear it here first... I'm PREGNANT! My husband and I are both really excited. Our daughter Chaya is two years old and I always wanted to have kids that were about three years apart because my brothers and I are three years apart and we get along great. I have just completed my first trimester and am feeling sick less often...

Carlos Amezcua (35 days): Yes, my Grandfather Carlos Daniel Herrera invented the Margarita. I know, I know it's hard to believe and even Michaela doubts the truthfulness of this claim. Here's the story. In the 1940's, 50's and 60's my grandfather owned and operated the "La Gloria" resort located just south of Tijuana in Baja California, Mexico. It was a popular hangout for Hollywood movie stars. Elizabeth Taylor, Phil Harris and his wife Alice Faye, Mickey Rooney, Clark Gable, Walt Disney all hung out there. The hotel part was quaint and very upscale. The bar was monstrous and a Baja legend. My grandpa was the head bartender and one day he mixed up some drinks for a couple of celebrities one of them being an actress named Marjorie King. Marjorie could not drink Tequila straight so he created a blended drink that was smoother. He named the drink after Marjorie and called it "Margarita"....On another subject, my favorite band "Chicago" is about to release a brand new album...

After the jump: Fascination with Michaela's hair, and Hal's caps lock key gets stuck.
