I can't seem to find the clip everyone refers to. Yeah, I agree she muds up a little here, but I haven't seen the really bad one yet.

@mpeveto100 I've got it on VHS, they did a profile on her in the early 90's. I keep meaning to upload the awful one where she's strung out on cocaine, just haven't got to it yet. Watch for it though, I may post it this weekend.

She is still slurring her speech.

The articulation of some words is still pretty muddy in spots. And, just as she did in the previous update an hour prior to this, she runs over. She was on something-no two ways about it.

I wonder if this is before or after she gave her slurred newscast? She looks and sounds a lot better here. Bless her heart.

@MysticalSelah AFAIK, this was the 9:59 p.m. (Eastern) update.

The slurred newscast aired at 8:58.
