Sexy News Anchors? Thank Fox News

November 19th, 2007 by Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com · 1 Comment

Robin Meade

I’m a news junkie. I get up just before 6am every day and am greeted by Robin “Bubbles” Meade’s “Good Morning Sunshine.” (I call her Bubbles ‘cause she’s, well, bubbly.) Whenever I am doing something requiring less than 100% attention I have the 13” Sony perched on my desktop tower tuned to CNN, MSNBC or, for comic relief, Fox News.

I’ve been a news junkie for at least six years so I’ve been able to see a gradual yet profound change in the general sexiness of the programs. Specifically the female anchors.

It all started, I believe, with Fox News.

When I first began my habit I got exposed to Fox News. I had seen little snippets about Fox News on the old Talk Soup program, but I had never watched for myself. One of the first things that struck me was how many of the women anchors had blond hair. It struck me because I had rarely seen blond female correspondents on other networks.

There was a time in America, not so long ago, when blond women were considered mentally inferior. Maybe even bimbo-esque. I suspect that in order for a woman to be taken seriously as a journalist she had to go with a darker color.

But on Fox Bimbo was not only favored—dare I say?–it was encouraged. The blonder the better.

At the same time other cable news networks were striving to catch up with Fox’s ratings without adopting Fox’s Right-Wing leanings. But what could they do?

They added banter. Now previous talking heads were suddenly thrust into the witty repartee business—and many were ill prepared. Like Ted Baxter clones, they came only half prepared for wit. Even Bubbles went through an awkward period of adjustment before she got back to her pre-packaged pageant chitchat.

So news exes began trying a second tactic: Sexier news.

Suddenly blond was the new brunette. Heavier make-up. Full-length shots of leggy news babes. Who knew my beloved “Bubbles” was wearing a mini-skirt and 4” mules beneath her news desk?

It won’t be long until someone starts SPNN – The Stripper Pole News Network.

Mr. Murdoch, are you listening?

Relationship Help: Feeling Close

November 16th, 2007 by Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com · Be First to Comment

Relationship Help

Are you wondering why your lover feels so far away? Do you just not feel close any more? This happens at different times throughout the life of a relationship. First and foremost, this needs to be seen as a reminder, a wake-up call to get back on track. If you let this go on for too long, you will find yourself living as roommates, with no real intimacy between you.

Steps to Feel Close Again

  1. Start Talking. I don’t mean daily chit chat. I mean real conversation about your hopes and dreams. Where do you want your life to go? Who are you now at this point in your life? What do you want to accomplish?
  2. Spend Quality Time. Couples need to spend at least 10 hours per week connecting. I know that seems like a lot because everyone has jobs and kids, etc. BUT if you want a great marriage, find the time. Put the kids to bed early, get a babysitter for the night. Find some time for love.
  3. Touch Your Sweetheart. Showing physical affection (holding hands, rubbing her back, etc) releases something in your body called oxytocin. Oxytocin is the bonding chemical. It makes you feel close to another person.

A healthy relationship needs to be nurtured. It needs to be given time and attention. When your relationship becomes your priority, just look at how great your life can be.
