For most people in East Texas having a national television show being produced in such a small place would be very exciting. Yeah right.
Lauren Jones is not the typical frumpy East Texas housewife you will see at the local Walmart. She is the person for whom those housewives envy and whose husbands daydream about. She is from New York and she is beautiful. Not only is she a swimsuit model she is actually intelligent if you take the time to get to know her.
Fortunately, I know whereof I speak. My 13 year-old daughter went to C.S.I. Summer Camp at Kilgore College. Lauren was the reporter sent over to cover the story. My daughter thought she was very sweet, personable, actually showed an interest in what they were learning as opposed to asking her "X-amount" of questions and leaving.
If anything, I have had to restrain myself and do my research before sending a disgruntled email to Station Mgr/Director Phil Hurley. I have to say, I will watch the TV show, Anchorwoman and encourage others to as well...but I wont be watching the news at 5, 6, or 10.
