Thank you to the legions of people who watched The Early Show on CBS all this week looking for me. I'm sorry to have disappointed you. Trust me, even though I recorded it every morning and I spent all week waking up early and watching in anticipation of my national T.V. debut.
It didn't happen. I told a zillion people about it. My family, my friends, my clients, my prospective clients, my colleagues, all of you, and even a few strangers.
It honestly felt a bit embarrassing and I thought for sure that I was on the cutting room floor, but hey, that's the news business. Sometimes fashion stories, cranes collapsing, and wines for under 15 bucks are just more important stories than little segments about two words that are on everyone's mind these days REAL ESTATE!
Okay, here's the scoop.
I am expecting now that my segment taped last Friday
WILL be airing tomorrow morning (Saturday) between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. on The Early Show on CBS.
How do I know? I checked The Early Show website this afternoon and in the upper right hand corner, there's a "Coming Up Next" box which lists tomorrow's stories. For the first time this week, the story I got interviewed for appears in this box.
If you are unable or unwilling to wake up this early on a Saturday morning, set your TIVO, your VCR, or just wait until I post the streaming video online after it airs.
I rarely, if ever, watch a morning news show on t.v., so this week was an eye-opener for me.
Some of the things I learned this week from watching The Early Show on CBS:
- The First Lady of France posed nude.
- College kids actually play Quidditch (the fictional sport from the Harry Potter books).
- Weathermen really act goofy.
- There are lots and lots of annoying commercials on national t.v. news shows
- Big Mama's Soul Food looks very good -- but you have to go to Pittsburgh to try it.
