Former KTVU FOX 2/Oakland-San Francisco anchor Frank Somerville was interviewed by SF tv competitor KRON 4 on Tuesday evening. KTVU countered with an interview with Condoleezza Rice. Ratings numbers show these two features canceling each other out. Somerville was fired from KTVU after an on-air appearance where it appeared he may have been under the influence of either drugs or alcohol. He had also been arrested for a DUI.
Good to see a story about Angie. As a Mariner fan, every winter I keep thinking, Angie, when will the clouds disappear?
I nicknamed her, the golden girl of summer.
I listened to the interview. It was good, I wish it could have broadened a little.
Your obsession with Angie alarms me. Don’t make me contact the authorities.
My real obsession is with the Mariners. I’ve never wavered as a fan.
Now your scaring me.
In my opinion, she symbolizes baseball in this town. Since the players are known as the “Boys Of Summer”, I coined the nickname.
Was Angie asked for her views on trans ‘women’ competing against real women?
That would be a topic KNKX (NPR) would avoid, I am guessing.
