Honest media tweet o' the day

By Kevin Roderick | January 17, 2011 11:35 AM

This was actually last night, just before the 10 o'clock news began on Fox 11 here. Anchor Jeff Michael to his 2,000 Twitter followers and anyone else who was listening:

@jeffmichael11: Tonight's newscast will cover plenty of #Goldenglobes. Then sometime later on, we'll have news.

Every anchor in L.A. would have been honest to tweet that last night.
