Actually it would appear that all female journalists are super sexed up, and the boys are wacky.

That possibly reflects how they view or cast their models.

It depends on if it is TV or print. TV journalists are always glam, but the ink-stained wretches in print are less so.

I love the presenter dancing the can-can! Happens all the time in our office: the music starts and we burst into song and dance spontaneously.

This is brilliant. I should photograph everyone on my course and see how many are "wacky" or "sexy".

Oh good. So even when we're researching, writing, interviewing, and otherwise working in a dark room entirely sequestered from humanity, girls still have to look like we wouldn't be out of place on a Maxim cover. Fabulous.

I'll take one female wacky journalist, please, with a side order of dishevelled.
