Alycia Lane Still In News, Somehow

030708alycia-wax.jpg
While it seems the Ongoing Saga of Alycia Lane has wrapped up, the New York tabloids are still writing about her. As such I've decided to write about her as well!

Lane (at right -- not her wax figure in Madame Tussauds) was recently suggested by New York Daily News TV editor Richard Huff as a replacement for some dude who left up in NYC. As such, he got a lot of hate mail for some reason:

"What was your [TV Editor] Richard Huff thinking when he recommended Alycia Lane, the disgraced former Philadelphia reporter, for Chuck Scarborough's position on Ch. 4 news?," wrote Tom Mullen, a retired member of the NYPD.

"If this is the best candidate he could come up with, maybe the N.Y. Daily News might rethink Mr. Huff's position," Mullen wrote.

Whoo! Oh man, this is the biggest Alycia Lane story since... well, okay, I basically just wanted to post that wax-like Lane photo. Also, there's no way she doesn't end up on a new TV show after her six-month penance is over.

Readers chilly to hiring Alycia Lane from Philadelphia [NY Daily News]

Cheek implants, Restylane injections for the lips, and botox, definitely. Leesh is keeping herself fresh!

Ron Paul is the best candidate you can find.

I think her next career move should be The Surreal Life. Preferably cooped up in a house with some pseudo-famous lesbian.

Richard Huff is an idiot. He can't even see that David Ushery is the logical successor to Chuck Scarborough.

Talk about job security. Michael Colleran, president of Philadelphia's KYW-3-CBS and WPSG-57-CW, has a good reason to want to keep CW Philly traffic anchor Sean Murphy (right) on his payroll. Murphy and Colleran's daughter Jennifer are about to have a child.

But, wait. It gets better. The couple is not married...at least to each other. Murphy, who turns 39 today, is still hitched to local theater professional Deborah Seif.
