Why didn't Carl blog today?

Because he did double duty last night. He wasn't scheduled to anchor yesterday, but when we were uncomfortably close to airtime with no anchor in sight, Carl stepped in, probably fixed his hair, and got on the set.

He wasn't the only one who we went above and beyond their usual jobs. The program was formatted for another anchor, which means scripts, lower-third graphics and our web transcript all had to be changed at the last minute. (Take a bow Student News production staff, you know who you are...)
