How dare you attempt to make fun of Jean Enersen - reigning MILF from 1976-1980. Where were you back then, hey smart pant Strangers?? Where were you?

Still thinking, probably.

Meanwhile, Enersen's skin was long, supple and parted on the side.

Was that really the most deserving target you could think of?

(I'd hit it)

Tacky and completely tasteless.

Of all the people to take the piss out of you choose Jean?

I guess your right old ladies have no business being in front of the camera. Let's put some Stranger staffers up to the same scruples.

Ari, Megan, Erica, Cienna (ok, not fair she's hot) please post some pics so we can ridicule your short comings.

You Strangers are hell-bent on never working for any other media outlet but your beloved Stranger for the next 20 years, aren't you? What's their names, Keck and Savage are the only tools bringing in a salary while the rest of you "overhead in the office" types throw water balloons at each other, snarking about other local media outlets. Content to make $28K a year? Stay put, keep throwing that Frisbee on your hash-fumed bus, but someday you're going to be 35 and want to start making some serious dough - not so funny now, is it? Names are remembered.

lol. what are these thread comments? did you all lose your masturbation virginity to her?

what the hell?

i mean seriously, number 5, no one's gonna get passed up for a hire, because they used her for a bit of satire. lol.

do you guys get together and review the goddess's five o clock news performance and chat about it on IRC channel #enersen_lovers, or perhaps you guys have enersen fan blogs. if you do, please, please, please post a link.

Hey Six: No fan club here, just a lot of respect for her. Jean Enersen was the 1st female TV news anchor in a major market in 1972. Imagine the b.s. she went through back then. She's earned her wrinkles! Unlike a certain 42-year-old Stranger editor/advice columnist whose AZT "facial wasting" can't be fixed by Sculptura.

So true, number 5, So true. These cruel jabs at everybody else in town are getting old.

Enjoy it while you can hipster kids, when your "careers" at the Stranger are over, you'll be serving drinks and busing tables.

When I click on the image, I get a log-in dialogue box for "The Stranger(content)." What's up with that?

Dan Savage can't have AIDS. If he did, there'd be press releases and interviews in the daily papers and a book deal. Savage knows how to milk money out of the kinds of things other people do for free, stuff like having kids, getting married. If he were dying he'd be milking money out of that too.

Oh and he'd be doing a 180 on his past positions on AIDS.

weak weak weak photo - might have at least got some deli-thin sliced meat - what's the point in crossing the line if you are just going to hang out right on the other side

*sniff sniff* What's that stink? Smells like desperation and fear. How's come you so nasty, Strangerites? Lashing out at a 60-ish woman for her sagging skin - wow, that's original. And sharp! Ba-da-boom-ba-da-bing, you hipsters keep the rest of us on our toes. Yeah, wow, 60-ish chicks have sagging skin, whaddyaknow. Damn. Shoo-ee. Meaningless pot-shots like this cloud your overall message (and what is that, by the way?).
You're scared; your readership is tanking; no one is impressed. Your reign of being pea-shooter king at the back of the 8th-grade school bus is about to end. Freshman year beckons. HA HAH! (I said that in the Nelson voice)

This was mean, and not funny. I mean, I'm game for a little ageism and sexism if there's a trace of ironic wit, but this has none.

Not that Jean's a tower of journalism, necessarily, but it is refreshing to see someone over 35 doing the news.

My on-going concern with the news isn't so much who is doing it as it is what it has become. JibJab addresses the issue thusly:
