WOIO to Broadcast Bosley Story Tonight
"YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio -- Film at 11! WOIO-TV in Cleveland is heavily promoting tonight's news broadcast that features an update on Catherine Bosley, the former Youngstown anchorwoman who resigned from WKBN-TV 13 months ago after pictures of her dancing nude were published on the Internet."Shattered Lives, Second Chances," is Channel 19's title for the Bosley story, which is reported by Sharon Reed -- "the only local journalist that can tell the story that swept the news wires, Internet Web sites and talk shows like wildfire -- from the inside," WOIO's promotions claim.Reed gained national notoriety after reporting (and showing) her experience when she joined a few thousand people posing nude last summer for an art photograph. WOIO broadcast that story during the November ratings period -- and achieved its highest ratings in history.Bosley is part of WYFM's Y-103 Morning Show team. She was interviewed last week by Reed, who spent the day in Youngstown preparing her report that will air tonight at 11 p.m. on WOIO and tomorrow at 10 p.m. on its sister station, WUAB.Here's how the TV station, known for pushing the line between entertainment and journalism, is promoting Bosley's story:"Imagine you're vacationing with your husband hundreds of miles from home, you cut loose in a bar for just a moment and it ends up costing you everything. Caught up in the moment at a beachside bar, Ohio news anchor Catherine Bosley danced a striptease on a stage in front of total strangers, unaware that one moment of celebration with her husband would destroy her life. In a cut-throat line of work like broadcast journalism, image is everything, and Bosley paid the price.How do you fight back when the eye of public scrutiny is bearing down on you from every conceivable angle?"Visit WOIO at www.woio.com"
