Not too long ago you and I chatted about local TV news. I thought of you when I read this. It's from the Post's TV Column. In case you missed it...

<<Shannon Bream, a former Miss Virginia and Florida lawyer, is joining Channel 4's news team as the NBC station's new weekend morning anchor.

She replaces Mil Arcega, who left the station last month "to pursue other opportunities," according to Channel 4's vice president of news, Vickie Burns.

Bream will start soon and eventually team with co-anchor Eun Yang, who goes on maternity leave next month.

Bream currently anchors the early-evening and late-night newscasts for CBS affiliate WBTV in Charlotte, where she's worked since 2001. She also has been a reporter and fill-in anchor at Tampa ABC affiliate WFTS.

Before hitting the small screen, Bream specialized in corporate law in Tampa. While there she beat 50 other competitors to be a "citizen panelist" on Bill Maher's now-defunct ABC late-night show, "Politically Incorrect," in fall '99.

In an interview with the Tampa Tribune about that national TV gig, Bream said she was a longtime conservative Republican. The paper also reported that the Tallahassee native graduated from Jerry Falwell's Liberty University and studied law at Florida State.

Bream was crowned Miss Virginia in 1990. She also was a top 10 finalist in the 1991 Miss America pageant and a contestant in the 1995 Miss USA pageant.>>
