Women Move to the Anchor Desk:
Veronica Corningstone arrives at Channel 4 to add diversity to the all-male news team, but meets adversity instead. Ron Burgundy thinks diversity is "an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era." Veronica sails into the newsroom full of ambition, but she's stuck covering lightweight stories and fending off a pack of male chauvinist pigs. When Ron goes missing at airtime, Veronica gives her shot at the anchor chair. She nails the newscast and is promoted to co-anchor. Veronica rigs Ron's teleprompter, and his salty signoff gets him sacked. Shunned by the news team, he spirals from sharply dressed to sloppy mess, wandering the streets a broken man. |
