the ugliest news set in the world

I heard the same; even Tuck, a pretty high-pitched guy himself, couldn't stand Lippman's style. Absent here are husband-and-wife team of Jim Lampley and Bree Walker, the regular 11 p.m. anchors. Olbermann, who was in his last days at KCBS in mid-late '91, seems unusually serious and restrained here.

Olbermann made fun of "Sweating Bullets", mouthing it mockingly, as their mics were turned off.

[nick82107]

These were the pre-Letterman days on CBS, when "Crimetime after Primetime" ran at 11:35 with a different drama each weeknight. I think "Sweating Bullets" was Monday--but hkfreak already knew that, no doubt. Olbermann was, even then, one of a kind.

Oooh...John Lippman, the horror!

[NewsOnDemand]

This I believe was just prior to John Lippman's "Reign of Terror."

[united772]

So cruel and hated was John Lippman by the KCBS people?

[qwertfert]

I once heard that Mike Tuck punched him... not sure if it was true but I think "His Perspective" on Lippman would been a better way to go.

John Lippman was also previously the news director of KIRO, another CBS station in Seattle, who he had worked for 13 years before coming to KCBS briefly.
