former newsboy 52 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 So the big loser in our poll and the least impressive of all the on-air tryouts is the one who got the job. The press release just went up on CBS 2's website that reporter Mai Martinez has been named weekend co-anchor. Here's the link... http://cbs2chicago.com/pressreleases/local_story_263163150.html Alita come back!

2watcher 0 Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Channel 2 could not have picked a more unqualified person for the job. Every single one of the other candidates would do better than her. Kristyn Hartman would've been my choice. Looks like 2's ratings will go down yet again!

NewsMan 0 Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 The only reason why she got the job is because she is Hispanic. 2 needed to put another Hispanic in an anchor to not anger them. Then they would have been even more pissed them off. In my opinion Susan Carlson should have got it.

DFWTVNews30 0 Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 why did 2 need to put another hispanic in the anchor chair? They have Antonio Mora and Roseanne Tellez. I'm African-American but I could care less what color the anchor was, although I do like to see a diverse anchor line-up. Krystan DEFINITELY should have gotten the job. Oh well. I'll continue to watch 7. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2079-mai-martinez-gets-the-gig/#findComment-20103 Share on other sites More sharing options...
