Patrick On July - 21 - 2008

Here is some bad news for those of us who ♥ lunges. It looks like KOKH evening anchor Jaime Cerreta has a talent page on medialine.com. From her online resume:

In my decade of news experience, I have consistently exceeded station expectations. Ratings in key demographics have increased each month since I started in my current position as Main Anchor/Reporter at KOKH FOX 25 Oklahoma City. I co-anchored the two top-rated nights and the best book ever in the station’s 10 year history.

Ratings Success • Community Involvement • Seasoned Anchor • Self Motivated • Solid Reporter • Succeeds under pressure

According to our media “insiders,” when a news personality posts one of these resume things, it usually means that the anchor has the “blessing” of the station management to look for a new job. If that’s the case, whoever runs Channel 25 probably needs to be fired tomorrow morning and then forced to listen to Mark Shannon on KTOK for two weeks as punishment.

Seriously, instead of giving Jaime permission to post an online resume, KOKH should probably just get rid of Andrew Speno, combine his old salary with her’s, and then force her to sign a long term contract. They should also get rid of Myron Patton and that weird weatherman, and have Jamie do those segments, too. They should also buy her green shots on St. Patrick’s Day, because we think she likes green shots on St. Patrick’s Day. That would make us happy.

Anyway, please call Channel 25 at 405.843.2525 and voice your concerns. As a happy group, maybe we can save Jaime Cerreta.

    I think it’s a little late to get her back. Her departure was leaked days ago on OKCTalk.com

    No one, i repeat, no one should ever be forced to listen to Mark Shannon. Death by lethal injection or reading the Friday newspaper is a more humane punishment.

    Sad day to find the only reason to watch Fox25 is leaving…

    DAMN YOU SINCLAIR!!!

  5. Mack Munday says:

    Do you blame her for wanting to leave? Who would want to work alongside that dork Andrew Speedo and that goofy ass weatherman?

  6. I can’t stand Mark Shannon. It’s almost a mystery to me how he can keep landing broadcasting jobs…I guess it’s a poor statement about the condition that radio stations are in to bring him back.

    I can’t blame her for leaving either.

  7. Hold on, TDaddy, Lauren Richardson still works there.

    Do you think she’s trying to make it to the big leagues? She’s probably gunning for Cavanaugh’s job.

    did you see the tensile strength that is required in her workout tee? she is in the big leagues — and god bless her for it.

    Not sure, but at the end of the day, indeed every day,
    I think I will miss mornings and evenings with Ms.
    Cerreta, should she leave talking next to the not so
    excellent Spenomeister.

    Really, and I do mean really, really, I must say
    a few parting words for my favorite FoxBlonde Jaime
    Cerreta, just because the smile she brings me is a
    kind act . . . really.

    Awww…I love Andrew! He’s so much better than the plastic anchors on the other channels. I always thought Jaime moved her mouth too much when she spoke…like she was over-enunciating everything. I know, I know, you guys probably didn’t even notice she spoke.

  12. Adam says:

    if you follow her website link, her cell phone number is on the front page, so we can all send her goodbye texts!

  13. Adam says:

    Oh yeah, and FOX25’s Britten Follett also has a page there, so maybe she’s gone too. http://www.medialine.com/talentshop_demo.htm?page=22&resumeid=4396

  14. DCC says:

    Britten’s contract expires in October

  15. Bill says:

    I agree with you on the others at Fox 25. Thank god they made Myron remove that crap on his upper lip. WFT was that anyways? Jamie is such a sweetheart, hate to see her go.

  16. GirlTalk says:

    I think she’s leaving to move to Miami, where Scott Padgett took a job….I mean, can you blame her? He’s a cutie!! :)

  1. [...] Why she should be ranked lower: Uhm…she works at some news station in Lawton, so technically she’s not even eligible to be on this list.    That’s a damn travesty, because Terri would be a success in OKC.  Channel 5 should probably just get rid of Paul Folger and hire Terri immediately.  Maybe we should start a “Hire Terri Poahway” movement.  Hopefully it will be as successful as our one to save Jaime Cerreta.
