We had plenty of quality time with our favorite anchors and hosts in 2008 - from the campaign trail and the presidential debates to weekly, morning, and nightly news shows. Which of these friendly faces has the wit, voice, reputation and that certain something special that makes you put down the remote?
This year has been especially thrilling for fans of politics and news, so I can't wait to find out all your favorite things in 2008!

Ruh Roh: The Funniest News Anchor Bloopers

GiggleSugar — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 15:00:00 -0700

This is the best compilation of news anchor bloopers I've seen. It includes two of my fave on-air gaffes: when poor Ken Bastida's run-on sentence sentences his vacationing co-worker to death, and when a mountain climber is given props in spite of the fact that . . . he's gay. Priceless.

News Correspondent Gets Owned by Anchor

GiggleSugar — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 11:30:00 -0800

What begins as an incredibly dull news report about elevator repairs ends in an awkward on-air pissing contest between the news anchor and a correspondent who apparently used to be the anchor's boss. The tension begins to rise about 55 seconds in and escalates from there, with the irritated anchor delivering a stern lecture: "Well, if I have to teach you how to be a reporter, Ollie, I'll do that later." I love how they maintain a polite news tone even while hurling insults.

Breaking News: Live Lipstick Reapplication!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 15:00:00 -0800

During a "breaking" news report, the camera abruptly cut to a MSNBC news anchor doing a behind-the-scenes beauty check. It's good to know that in the face of a political crisis, our news source is more concerned with putting her best pucker forward. Mwah!

News Time Confessional?

GiggleSugar — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 01:00:00 -0800

Methinks this news anchor knew exactly what he was doing when he asked his counterpart an "innocent" question. She took the bait and delivered all the news that's fit to embarrass. And by "news," we're talking bedroom behavior. Girlfriend's probably still ~~kicking~~ spanking herself for this on-air slip.

News Anchor Loses Script

GiggleSugar — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 04:00:00 -0700

He doesn't openly admit it, but this news anchor has clearly misplaced his script. When else would the phrase "spring into action" be used to segue into a story about a flasher on the loose? The best puns are unintended, but this unscripted banter is just plain WRONG!

News Anchor Can't Keep A "Straight" Face

GiggleSugar — Fri, 13 Apr 2007 14:00:00 -0700

While reporting on vasectomies, a news anchor gets visually distracted and can't keep his schoolboy giggles to himself. Soon thereafter, the camera person joins in on the fun and the report takes a surprising below-the-belt detour. So much for serious broadcast journalism!

Fox News Anchor Gets Owned

GiggleSugar — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 03:00:00 -0800

I'm not sure who this guy is who told told a Fox News anchor that his program was just a "festival of ignorance," but he sure did shut the anchor up. Nothing says "I have no retort to your insult" like, "We're also talking about Captain Kirk this morning!" When in doubt, divert, divert, divert.

News Anchor Caught Boob-Handed

GiggleSugar — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 11:00:00 -0800

These news anchors are real good at multi-tasking. Last week, we caught an anchor primping her pout off-camera during a "breaking" news report. When the camera unexpectedly cut to the poor gal below, she got caught with her hand down her blouse- prepping her mic, so she says. Mmmkay. What goes on behind the news desk, stays behind the news desk?
