Miami Anchor Crosses the Line

You would think that an Anchor in the market size of Miami would know better.

WFOR Anchor Eliott Rodriguez raised a lot of eyebrows when he posted on social media as to who he thought voters should cast their ballot for.

Former Journalist Maria Elvira Salazar is now running for Congress and in a post Rodriguez calls her his “old friend” and then proceeds to throw her under the bus and tell his followers why they should not vote for her.

He says that english skills are not “up to snuff” and then says that Salazar is “all show and no substance.”

With friends like Eliott, who needs enemies?

Forget the part of saying this about an “old friend”…. why the hell is a Journalist weighing on who people should vote for at all?

Is CBS, who owns WFOR ok with this?

Does this mean all the Anchors at CBS O&O’s can tell viewers who they think that should vote for?

Someone like Rodriguez should know better before posting something like this. And, if I was his News Director, I would at least give him a few days off to think about it.

Also, you would not see him on the station’s air during election night.

But hey, that’s just me.
