Hottest News Anchor Preliminary Round

[jokerthief]

There are so many hot news anchors that this poll has to be broken into three rounds. This is the preliminary round and will consist of four groups of four anchors. The top two from each group will advance to the semi-finals. The semi-finals will then have two groups of four anchors, the top two from each group to advance to the finals. The finals will then determine the four hottest anchors in America.

If anyone has better pics, feel free to share.

[slickpoppa]

Christi Paul is my overall pick

[BottlesOf]

You missed Liz Cho. She was on ABC's World News Now (like 2-4 am) for a while and is now on the NYC local ABC affiliate for primetime local news. I'll try and find a pic...

christi paul belongs in group 2. she wins group 2 no doubt. putting her against rudi is just not fair.

rudi > all

I agree. Group 1 is too competitive. Rudi and Page should have #1 seeds in other brackets.

[Dead]

Soledad O'Brien and Kimberly Guilfoyle for me.

I can't stand the Fox News platinum blonde "babes".

[bd8802]

Rudi
Kiran
Natalie

I think you put the best first. I think Rudi is the hottest out of all of them.

/bd

[[censored]]

Am the only one who thinks Norah O'donnell is incredibly hot?

[AngryCola]

Rudi?

Huddy?

You guys are nuts.

[jokerthief]

I'm willing to bet she will makes it to the semi-final round. I won't put her up against Rudi in that round. The semi-final's two groups will have 2 1st place finishers against 2 seconds and none will compete with any they previously went up against.

[3rdEye]

Laurie Dhue owns.

Linda Vestner is probably also worth an honorable mention.

[Lazymeatball]

finals comes down to Kiran Chetry vs Juliet Huddy, at least in my book, but then again I am severely biased towards FOXnews.

ps. anyone else not seeing Natalie Morales?

Restricting this to American news is a shame, because you leave out Melissa Theuriau.

It's a shame - she should get a bye and go straight to the championship round. Although, it wouldn't really be a contest if she was in it anwyay, so maybe it's 'better' this way.

[kipin]

WHAT?

No Greta van Sustren?

[razor]

no Monita Rajpal?!

good call. (http://home.planet.nl/~wolf0620/rajpal.monita2.html) she is definitely hotter than some of the contenders in the poll.

[James Boston]

Where are the chicks from NakedNews.com?

[M2d]

small pd, but that's a hell of a rack

Soledad O'Brien is the only anchor I fantasize about on a regular basis.

Nothing like waking up to find morning wood and Soledad smiling down at me from the TV.

I suppose. It just doesn't seem quite right for any one of the 16 choices to win "hottest" though.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, she is #1. By far. I thank you for posting the first pictures of her. I forgot her name. Just go ahead and give her the trophy.

[jokerthief]

I think most of these women would pwn the naked news chicks if they unrobed.

[MicroBob]

My GF and I have an agreement.

I understand that our relationship is no longer once she starts dating Benjamin Bratt or George Clooney.
She understands that our relationship is history once I start dating Rudi Bakhtiar or Salma Hayek.


She knows that I'm ALL about Rudi!!



But I'm pretty hip to Soledad too. She's got that perky-cute flippy-hair thing going on.

And she looks pretty damn good for having given birth just a few months ago.

[Mayhap]

I remember Laurie Dhue interviewing Kissinger. I think he was drooling.

/M

[jokerthief]

I just realized that I should have set an end time to this poll. I'm going to close the poll, non-authoritatively, sometime tomorrow and post the semi-final. Hopefully two frontrunners pull away in group three so we don't have a "Florida 2000" incident.

Soledad is gorgeous, but Laurie Dhue just does it for me for some reason.

This is a different poll. It's for the hottest anchor not the hotest.

Christi Paul for the win, with the Asian chick for second. However I must say that the French babe would win hands down, were she included. And group two is weak sauce.

Wow. Why isn't she in the poll?

[jokerthief]

With group 3 so close and the sparse support for group 2's runner up, should I take 3 from group three and one from group 2? All those in favor say aye; opposed nay.

[Isura]

Damn. Definitely her.

[Chobohoya]

Aye

[MEbenhoe]

aye
