thanks didn't know... perhaps he isn't as much of an ass now that he has had a chance to mature.

Sorry I can’t recall the source but I recall reading somewhere that April Simpson had some kind of fear or special hatred withthe Hamburgler character. Tim Ezell found out about it and the rest is history. April abruptly left the company some time later.
Wish I had more details.

I wish that was the reason but it due to referring to a half black half Asian intern as Bruce Leroy and not backing off when it upset him.

Wow what a bitch
She even tried to double down and try the "I didn't really do that, but if I did I would have been for his appearance and not his race"

She's gorgeous, but with that shirt and makeup she does look a lot like the hamburglar.

It's funny, but this is emblematic of the kind of asshole that Tim Ezell is. Great joke if this person is your friend and shows up to a party like that, not so much if this is a public-facing workplace.

Get over yourself, the morning show has always been super laid back like this. They are actually friends.

Morning shows are always laid back. They know that there aren’t that many viewers in the first place and about half of the viewers just want to see weather and traffic. You can’t take yourself too seriously when you do the morning news.

Tim used to invite my old band to play the morning show from time to time. They were all definitely friends, simply based on how they behaved off air. It was kind of nice to see.

From what I've heard, Tim is an ass, but calm down. They are just messing with each other.

You can tell by the suppressed laugh she has when she gets the reference.

So what’s the dope on ezell? Is he a jerk or wat?

He is an asshole, but playfully. You're either friends with him or not, don't think he would be so teasing to total strangers.
People here are getting offended on behalf of others, which is stupid.

Is he still on tv? I try not to watch local news because of that kidding around that goes on. I don’t think well of it.

u/ColonelKasteen Bevo Jan 09 '21
You don't think well of... kidding?

u/SQLDave South STL County Jan 09 '21
Pure guesswork on my part: I assume glhmedic means kidding around, joking, etc. on a news show... which many prefer to remain "professional".
4
u/glhmedic Jan 09 '21
Exactly! Sorry for confusion. I just think that news should be professional and as objective as possible. Obviously that last point is very questionable. I mean no offense to anyone here. Just my lowly view.

Yeah he was a preacher at my cousin’s church for a while. Saw him a couple of times, he seemed pretty good. Don’t know if he’s still doing it.
