I'm pretty certain now that the photo she sent in on AC360's NYE show was NOT the REAL Betty Ann because she doesn't sound a day under 90 with those boring comments.

Amazing!<br /><br />Ol' BettyAnn was promoting a trip to the Big Apple this past Spring to get a glimpse of Anderson, yet staged as a trip for the school. That TX town she lives in has the claim to fame as the oldest town in TX. How fitting. <br />http://www.sfasu.edu/pubaffairs/pressreleases/january2006/20nyc.aspAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118063093598753707.post-35345523928496081852007-01-08T15:19:00.000-05:002007-01-08T15:19:00.000-05:00And Betty Ann weighs in with her brilliant and not...And Betty Ann weighs in with her brilliant and not to be missed commentary:<br /><br /><i>What Oprah has done for these girls is so great. Oprah is GREAT! How amazingly wonderful that these underpriviledged girls will have opportunities and education that will change their lives and those around them. I am deeply touched by Oprah's generosity to make a change in Africa.

It's up to the person giving the bucks to determine how their wealth is spread around. Oprah doesn't need shouting from the peanut gallery, she needs us all to follow suit. If it's a dime or it's a million we should give whenever and Wherever we can. That's my bossy two cents worth. Thanks Oprah.<br />Take Care<br /><br />Posted By Lorie Ann, Buellton, Calif. : 10:14 PM ETAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118063093598753707.post-88159280342141548482007-01-08T08:58:00.000-05:002007-01-08T08:58:00.000-05:00This show has a lot of possibilities, I hope that ...This show has a lot of possibilities, I hope that CNN takes advantage of them...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118063093598753707.post-42006814555781610112007-01-08T02:01:00.000-05:002007-01-08T02:01:00.000-05:00Chris, thanks for the update!Chris, thanks for the update!mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10400420847118243675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118063093598753707.post-60898217473551923452007-01-08T01:32:00.000-05:002007-01-08T01:32:00.000-05:00I agree that real inverstigative reporting is real...I agree that real inverstigative reporting is really lacking on cnn. That is long overdue, what Klein said sounds very promising. I only hope it will be true investigative reporting.

Anderson's a big Law and Order fan, maybe he thought up the name. ;)<br /><br />He's been in the promos so I guess he'll be able to do both SIU and 60 Minutes. This sounds like it'll be an interesting series.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
