In big markets, TV stations have consultants that tell Anchors what they should and should not wear on air. 

In small markets like Cape Girardeau, MO, they don't have such a luxury. 

So, one Anchor is turning to viewers for wardrobe help. 

On Monday night, KFVS Anchor Mary-Ann Maloney shared a Facebook photo of herself wearing a rose-patterned sleeveless blouse, writing: 

Her audience debated the appropriateness of the top. One person wrote, “I don’t think anchors should have their shoulders showing…” While another added, “It looks great but I’m sure some will say a little bare. It pushes the boundaries.” However, most complimented the 10 o’clock anchor’s look, with one person declaring, “You wear whatever the hell makes you feel comfortable/pretty. You don’t need my opinion or anybody else’s….”

Maloney explained in the comments section of the post that years ago, she wore a more revealing top during a 30-second segment and afterward, received a “mean” phone call from a female viewer.

We're betting that not a single viewer commented on her co-anchor's jacket and tie. 

This business is so much tougher for women.

Just saying...
