Probably but I figured the rest of the comment may not be appreciated on a "family" site..

This is what it was like when I was in SoCal. Throw in a boob job to the requirements.

I'm going to assume you're a fan of 80's hair metal and animal print clothing?
Now don't be throwing the BS card about being on a high horse here, the following is a very real response to this thread...
Am I the only one that finds this whole thread rather disgusting? Out of the 30 posts on the first page of the thread, every single post has sounded like a crude 8th grader objectifying anything that moves. Are we really still at the point where a lady can't be considered good at her job unless she has big **** and a short skirt? You do realize that most meteorological jobs these days require somebody to be smart and not just smile and read a teleprompter, right?
I guess maybe I'm the only one that watches the weather to see if I need to dress my son in a coat or shorts rather than to get a quick, creepy fix in by looking at pretty ladies. Threads like this remind me why I'm glad I don't have to raise a daughter in today's world, it's hard enough trying to raise a son with self dignity and respect for others.
Seriously though, this thread says a lot about how far we as a society still have to go to treat people equally and not because of their eye-candy-worthiness.

She looks like a child in her pic too
Congrats to the young woman for working her way up to a mid-sized market! Well done and good luck
You do understand that being in front of a tv for a living requires more than just being smart or talented, right? It requires people wanting to watch you do whatever it is that you're doing. That goes for both men and women.
Just in the des moines market alone, can you name me one ugly/super overweight person?
BS card played...definitely on your high horse. Some of the comments boarder on creepy, but just talking about how good looking someone on TV is not. Sex sells and TV takes advantage of it. There is a reason they spend an hour in the makeup chair before they go on TV. Maybe you have a problem with society in general and how women are objectified in it, and that's valid, but newscasts aren't doing anything but perpetuating the problem. Maybe you should stop watching and supporting newscasts in the morning if you have a real problem with it.
Well put.
Steve Deace is as ugly as they come, but obviously he's not on TV much anymore. I would argue that most of the men seem to be lower on the "1 to 10" scale in comparison to the females. Goes to show that women probably aren't as wrapped up in having to be sexually aroused every time they turn the channel.
Fair enough. I do have a general feeling of disgust with the overall objectification and unfair treatment of women, which only seems to be growing rather than slowing. I completely agree that sex sells and tv does play a very large part in the overall problem, which is probably one of a million reasons why I don't waste time watching the news unless there is a major world event or pending storm. Otherwise, I get the same information much quicker and more reliably online without the hassle.
The last time I saw Miller on TV he looked like he was keeping in shape but that was months ago. He may have gained an lb or two. Hard to know for sure.
Joking aside, that really stinks, especially at work.
the one guy you came up with doesn't even do tv and never has unless you consider that little mediacom thing he did with Jon Miller tv. Thanks for making my point.
