Everyone here at PinkDome want to give a shout out to Rich Parsons, who's enjoying his last day at Austin's KXAN NBC. Rich covered the Legislature for KXAN and has been with the channel since 1998. Happy trails, Rich!
Update: I've received word that KXAN's Jenny Hoff will be taking Parsons' place as the Lege correspondant. I'm sure everyone remembers Jenny:
Thanks to KXAN's in-depth report last week, viewers now know that when reporter Jenny Hoff is blasted with a Taser she makes a noise vaguely resembling Meg Ryan's fake orgasm in the movie When Harry Met Sally. Hoff took the 50,000 volts in the name of TV journalism after those pansy reporters from the other stations refused the APD's kind offer to get Tased. That night, eager to report Hoff's scoop that a Taser can be fairly painful, the NBC affiliate made Hoff's electrocution the lead story for the 10pm program, ranking it just above news that the second most powerful Texan in the world had just been indicted.
If you're reading this, Rich, vaya con dios!
LegeBoy - I'm not sure where he's going next.
Where's he going next?
