Hey! Isn't That The Anchor from Channel 8?

If you're like me, you can't wait to get your hands on your issue of Maine Magazine each month.

While thumbing through this month's issue, it appears we came across an ethical dilemma involving a WMTW, the Hearst station in Portland.

Splashed in a full page ad for local hotel/inn appears to be WMTW morning Anchor Erin Ovalle. It's not a good idea to have your Anchor pimping a local business, while at the same time reporting the news.

The question is, did she do this on her own? Or, did the station put her up to it? Either way, the ethics line has been crossed and someone needs to be talked to.

Just saying....
