The Ashleigh Banfield Hubba Hubba Appreciation Society

Anyone else with me on this?

For those that don't know, she's the "girl with the glasses" reporter for MSNBC. She's on quite a bit these days, reporting the past month or so from Pakistan and is currently in Queens, covering the horrible plane crash there.

Something about her...

Must be those glasses!

Hmmm, yeah. She was the one near ground zero when the towers collapsed. She I think was the one who screamed when the first one went down. I jumped to the ceiling when I heard her! I remember seeing her afterwards covered in dust...and again when she was interviewing that mother with her baby when the other building collapsed. She yelled something like; "Hurry! Get away!" to the mother...

Guess she's gotten some points for all the work she has done since. Good for her.

I dunno if I'm with you or not 'cates. I usually have a hard time stomaching MSNBC (the election thing really turned me off), but maybe it's worth a look just to get a glance at Ashleigh. Such an aristocratic spelling too...I bet she's one of those conservative girls who's an animal in the sack...

She looks a tad mannish for me. Too strong of a jaw I think. I do like the eyeglasses (reported to have cost $400) and the ever changing hair color. I think she could dress up a little. Plus the "westerner in scarf" look is a turn on.

I liked that woman on CNN. I can't remember her name. She went on to do talk back live. Not the blonde.

Put Jeanne Moos into a better looking body and I've got a dream girl!

Only nice pic I could find. Also, I think she's married... <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />

Yeah, for some reason, finding pics of her on the Web is next to impossible!

I thought she was more famous/lusted after than that. There's been buzz about her since the whole election thing last year, so I was sure there would be quite a few fan sites of hers with plenty of pics, but I found the pic above at MSNBC, a couple of small, hard-to-appreciate ones at various sites and that was about it.

Lots of google.com hits on her name, but mostly articles and stuff...no photos.



I thought the Internet was the one place you could find pics of almost anyone or anything, no matter how obscure or far-out?



And yeah, she did cut her hair off a bit more and go with a darker color. I still dig it, but this summer she hosted some show on MSNBC about Pearl Harbor and she had the slightly longer, blond-streaked hair and tight khaki pants and a bomber jacket...and it was love at first sight. Or lust, anyway.

I've been waiting for the latest pscates crush! I've thought Ashleigh was sexy for a while in a M.I.L.F. sort of way.

On the subject of good looking news anchors: what's with Paula Zahn (formerly of Fox News, now CNN)-Has anyone else noticed she literaly seems to glow?

Thanks, kaboom...I swear I'd never even noticed that before! "Images". Hmm...

The ones I found, however, are the same 3 or 4 I've seen everywhere else. What's this chick's deal? She's posed for exactly four pictures in her career?

"Talk Back Live" ... Susan Rook? She did it before Bobbie Batista, I think.

I'll admit to having a little crush on CNBC's Martha McCallum.

Yea! Susan Rook. She doesn't do it for me anymore.

Bobbie Batista is a cross eyed freak.

There's no current news woman that I "got to have" of late.

You ever see that <a href="http://www.nbc.com/Law_&_Order:_Special_Victims_Unit/bios/Stephanie_March.html" target="_blank">DA on Law & Order SVU</a>? Same deal with the glasses. She's just way hot anyways.
