Last I heard, she was doing the horizontal mambo with Bruce Frisko.
<gaak>
I did see her doing a news standup on Robie St after the last storm, so
she's still around.

Joanne's a broadcaster; not the best, but at least she can read.
Married five times? Well, I don't believe everything I read in "Frank".
Owing money, who doesn't? And if you think Chui is good, that's your
opinion, but she looks like she's trying too hard. And has, ever since she
started... Years ago.

Drewa also did the Saturday Morning "Good Morning Canada" show for a
while, but this week it was broadcast from somewhere out west. I saw Anne
do a remote broadcast from New Brunswick last week, and I saw the one on
Robie. I'd like to know what's up with her, because she's a Damn good
reporter/host/personality. She has it all, but what is going on?

You're quoting Frank magazine as some type of real journalism ?? You
read that trash and have the balls to call Clancy names ??? Puuleeeease
tell me you're joking. I made the mistake of buying that piece of trash
magazine once (I'll try anything once)...it's nothing but pure TRASH. I
find this NG more interesting !!

I was happy to see that this morning too, Gerry. Hope she stays.

I also think Anne Drewa is an excellent newsreader for ATV, seems very
friendly and personable and doesn't stumble over words. The only
problem I have with her is the way she says Cape Breton. :)

Later read he was canned for substance abuse..go figure.

My wife knows someone that lives a few doors from Star and she told her that Star is VERY big feeling person.
I sure miss Ron K. He was a class act. A ***** rating in my books.
I feel that Murphy conducts good interviews. Many times the questions he asks aren't what the interviewees want to hear.
When they try to give a politicians type of answer he hits them at a different angle.

...well informed and has over the years built up a large number of reliable "sources".
He is well thought of by not only those in the media but also by the MPs.
Another Maritimer that has gone to the top. Bravo!

I agree. These people are cruel. No regard for the fact that these
news people may be celebrities, but certainly human and not without
feelings.
ACK! You just basically said that Live at 5 is Wheel of Fortune and The ATV
Evening News is Jeopardy!
