Wearing a beard on local TV




I found these meme on Facebook. It's appropriate!


Myself, Taft and Libby on "2NEWS Today"
Gasp! A TV news anchor with a facial hair!  (Can you think of anyone in local TV somewhere who has a beard? Probably not!)

Years ago, I remember a few beards from news anchors in the 1980s. I grew up watching a bearded Dan Gresham at KFDM in Beaumont. But I can't easily think of anyone with lots of facial hair today. 

So I surprised a bunch of our viewers (and myself) this week when I showed up on TV with a light beard (with some gray hairs too if you look closely!)

  1. George, I just found your blog today, and I must say I liked the bearded weather man. I was told many years ago I would never make it in politics because people don't trust men with beards, and I've had a beard for over twenty years. I always thought that weird as Jesus had a beard and people seemed to trust him.
    I finally realized whoever came up with this absurd notion must of been one of those poor pitiful men who are unable to grow facial hair. I for one loved the beard, and would like to see it again!
