One thing that is still buzzing around the newsroom is the Ines Sainz saga. To fill anyone in about the situation, Ines Sainz is a a sports reporter for a Mexican news station. She is a very attractive woman, and pretty much flaunts it by wearing tight clothes and other provocative outfits. Last week she entered the New York Jets locker room to do an interview with quarterback Mark Sanchez. Things were said (no one really knows what was said) in the locker room that she deemed inappropriate. This has started an uproar between the media, players, and viewers alike. Many people have chimed in on the issue. We were lucky to have two willing women to talk about it on our site in two different mediums. Carolyn Manno spoke up about her opinion on the topic in a casual conversation, which then led to her appearance on The Dino Radja Experience (Rich Levine's weekly podcast) to address the situation. (Link here -- http://is.gd/fdK84 ) Mary Paoletti also got a chance to talk about it in a more comical fashion via Wicked Good Sports. Mary goes into the locker rooms every week with her coverage of the Patriots. She even mentions an alternative way to dress this week now that SHE has to go into the Jets locker room. (Link here -- http://is.gd/fdKyv) Although I am not an attractive woman... or a woman at all, I still have learned a valuable lesson throughout this story. I learned that if you want to be taken seriously in the professional world, you must view yourself as a professional and dress the part.Okay, now on to the casual factor of the day. Today is the day for Quick Slants at 7:00 pm on CSN (Shameless promo) so Tom Curran was in the office. Because of the lack of news today, I naturally was looking for something to do. So, the two of us played catch with a Nerf football, which has been the highlight of my day.
So, in a nutshell, I am still enjoying every second of my internship. I just have to remember... no news is good news... and very boring.
