LAST CHANCE — Nominate Your Favorite TV Storm Stud!

Those of you old enough like me (sigh) to remember the “Scud Stud”, NBC’s Arthur Kent, know the impetus behind this poll. Nominate your favorite “Storm Stud” for the next GayPatriot poll.

I was going just to do the poll… but I didn’t want to leave out any potential nominees. So, for example, my initial nominees: Anderson Cooper, Geraldo (ugh), Shep Smith, Rick Levanthal (Mr. Tight Grey T-Shirt).

So go to it… and I’ll put all the nominations together for a vote before the weekend.

UPDATE: I’m going to close nominations tonight… one last chance before the vote.

  1. I gotta go with Jim Cantore at TWC.

  2. Yes, I second that. Definitely Cantore.

  3. I gotta agree with TGC. Although I can’t seem to find a decent picture of him, just watchin’ him get tossed around in 115 mph winds… DAMN!

  4. Definitely Bill Hemmer of FOX News. I am not sure of the spelling, but Bob Marciano who’s a CNN weather guy. There are a couple others but I need to see them on the air again to jot down their names.

  5. Bob Marciano gets my vote just for how hard he tries with his half-open shirt. Naw, wait – Anderson Cooper is still the one I wan tto be stuck on a rooftop with.

    Comment by Jim — September 7, 2005 @ 11:27 pm - September 7, 2005

  6. Adam Housley from Fox News Channel.

    Comment by Kevin P. — September 7, 2005 @ 11:38 pm - September 7, 2005

  7. Phil Keating from Fox News Channel

    Comment by Kevin P. — September 7, 2005 @ 11:39 pm - September 7, 2005

  8. You’re not going to post pictures for us to vote on??

    Comment by Clint — September 8, 2005 @ 1:43 am - September 8, 2005

  9. It has to be Harry Connick, Jr. rescuing that man from his home sans T shirt…….

    Comment by PatriotMom — September 8, 2005 @ 6:50 am - September 8, 2005

  10. yes….. the actual vote will include photos. This is just the nomination process.

    Uh.. PatriotMom…. Harry doesn’t count unless he’s hired by CNN to be a “journalist”. :-)

    Comment by GayPatriot — September 8, 2005 @ 8:58 am - September 8, 2005

  11. Bill Hemmer for sure, Jim Cantore, and Adam Housley get my votes

    Comment by Pamela — September 8, 2005 @ 10:17 am - September 8, 2005

  12. Hey GP – Harry Connick, Jr. may not be a journalist – but PatriotMom has excellent taste in men. And you can add Rick Levanthal to my list too – he’s easy on the eyes.

    Comment by Kevin P. — September 8, 2005 @ 11:13 am - September 8, 2005

  13. Sean Hannity of FOX….looks hot in jeans and polo shirt…yeah!

    Comment by benj — September 8, 2005 @ 11:26 am - September 8, 2005

  14. Cantore, Cantore, CANTORE! I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I’d get behind gay marriage if Jim would be my bride!

    Comment by njz — September 8, 2005 @ 11:40 am - September 8, 2005

  15. Bill Hemmer for STORM STUD (he was on CN N and just recently went to FOX NEWS)

    HE IS A BABE!!!

    thanks vfor all the good work!

    mark (fellow neo-con fag)

    Comment by mark wallace — September 8, 2005 @ 1:16 pm - September 8, 2005

  16. Would also like to nominate David Lee Miller and Dan Springer, both of FOX News.

    Comment by Jack L. Allen — September 8, 2005 @ 2:18 pm - September 8, 2005

  17. How about Christiane Amanpour? Yes, I know you all think she’s a woman, but take a closer look at the adam’s apple. Besides, I know a guy whose cousin saw her getting a ride home from Eddie Murphy. So there.

    Comment by JT — September 8, 2005 @ 6:33 pm - September 8, 2005

  18. Thomas Roberts on Headline News, and Jason Carroll, CNN.And Robert Marciana too the weatherman.

    I also fondly recall Jim Cantore undergoing a skin cancer exam on his fuzzy torso in a skimpy bathing suit while in Australia a few years back. Too bad beach attire was not required covering the hurricane.

    Comment by Tom Hooper — September 8, 2005 @ 6:50 pm - September 8, 2005

  19. GERALDO!!!! ;P

    Seriously, though, how about Steve Ducey(Sp?)?
    Steve’s kinda goofy though.

    Comment by ThatGayConservative — September 8, 2005 @ 6:51 pm - September 8, 2005

  20. Cripes.
    If Fox dumped Steve Doocy, they’d instantly gain about 1,000 points in my book. He’s a complete boob.

    Comment by njz — September 8, 2005 @ 6:57 pm - September 8, 2005

  21. MSNBC lags in the ratings, but they have two Storm Studs who should never be overlooked: Carl Quintanilla and Tom Costello. Carl does some of the physical action, rescue mission type coverage, without going over the top like Geraldo.

    Comment by Ezekiel B. — September 8, 2005 @ 7:49 pm - September 8, 2005

  22. My partner would go with Cantore, but my vote is for Levanthal :-)

    Comment by Wendy — September 8, 2005 @ 8:22 pm - September 8, 2005

  23. Well, I hate to piss on your parade Marys, but I’m changing my mind. I thought I had fixed myself on Cantore. But, so many different opinions here! Now, I’m being so persuaded in so many different directions that my head is spinning and my rump is heating up. So, I’m going for that hunk of the 60′s — Mr. Geraldo. Plus, you know you what they say about him, girlfriends? How did Bette put it? Big feet, big hands, ooh. Makes my arse hurt just thinking about it!

    Comment by Glisteny — September 8, 2005 @ 8:40 pm - September 8, 2005

  24. Here’s another nomination: Erik Lilligren of FOX News (hope I have name spelled correctly). He was helping Shepard Smith covering damage in Mississippi. I’ve never seen him befoe so he might be from a local FOX station.

    Comment by Jack L. Allen — September 8, 2005 @ 8:42 pm - September 8, 2005

  25. Gotta go with Shep Smith…what a hottie and plus, he’s a southern boy!!

    Comment by The Party Crasher — September 8, 2005 @ 8:44 pm - September 8, 2005

  26. 23 baby. I’m feeling yor vibe baby.

    Comment by mependulous — September 8, 2005 @ 8:56 pm - September 8, 2005

  27. Shep Smith, with Jim Cantore a very close second.

    Comment by Frank IBC — September 8, 2005 @ 9:44 pm - September 8, 2005

  28. Ooh, now that you mention Shep Smith, I don’t know what to do. He’s got such sparkling eyes, which I like aand nice hair, plus that voice. You know what they say about deep voices girlfriends! That’s the only thing I don’t like about our president. His voice isn’t deep enough. He’s got that whine. Like a liberal. And someone on another blog was talking about how the president had a boyfriend in college. Figures. He’s just not butch enouogh and that’s his problem right now. Needs more butch. Needs to put a sock in it again. Worked last time.

    Comment by Glisteny — September 8, 2005 @ 10:00 pm - September 8, 2005

  29. I gotta get some of Glisteny’s wine. :)

    Comment by Frank IBC — September 8, 2005 @ 10:09 pm - September 8, 2005

  30. Oh, screw it… I wanna do both Shep and Jim at the same time.

    Comment by Frank IBC — September 8, 2005 @ 10:09 pm - September 8, 2005

  31. I gotta give Adam Housley my nomination….come on he was a professional baseball player. Of course Phil Keating always gets a second glance. And then there’s Todd Conner….but I’m not sure if he actually did reporting from New Orleans.

    Comment by STLGreg — September 8, 2005 @ 10:14 pm - September 8, 2005

  32. I’ll bring the wine Frankie. You bring Shep and Jim. And please don’t forget Geraldo. (Remember what I told everybody about him!!!)

    Whee!!!!

    Comment by Glisteny — September 8, 2005 @ 10:18 pm - September 8, 2005

  33. 26. Big boy. I just caught your vibe back. Thought you were going to fool somebody with that name. I figured it out. I know these things. Ever heard of that song, Hey Mr. Big Stuff, who do you think you are?

    Comment by Glisteny — September 8, 2005 @ 10:33 pm - September 8, 2005

  34. Rick Levanthal gets my vote – he’s a man’s man. This guy’s a winner hands down.

    Comment by JB — September 8, 2005 @ 10:38 pm - September 8, 2005

  35. I agree with Shep.

    However, I’d sleep with James Carville (ACKK!) before Geraldo. Not that I think on it, Brit Hume would be better.

    Now that I think on it further, hell, Andy Rooney would be more attractive than Carville. ;P

    Comment by ThatGayConservative — September 8, 2005 @ 11:30 pm - September 8, 2005

  36. Further, I think Shep is the type of guy you could introduce to momma.

    Comment by ThatGayConservative — September 8, 2005 @ 11:31 pm - September 8, 2005

  37. I’d add Tucker Carlson to the list. Great hair and very hot without the bow tie that he usually wears in studio.

    Comment by Ezekiel B. — September 9, 2005 @ 12:03 am - September 9, 2005

  38. What about that guy who was one American Morning but is now switching to fox?

    Comment by Wannabeleader — September 9, 2005 @ 6:18 am - September 9, 2005

  39. I could see a straight man watching Fox News for its sexual stimulation value (Rupert’s always known what T&A can do for a media outlet), but a gay man??? And Glisteny, Geraldo??? He’s about 68 now, right? With skin hanging off — or maybe that was what attracted you.

    Comment by Reader — September 9, 2005 @ 7:00 am - September 9, 2005

  40. Shepard Smith gets my vote, then Anderson Cooper and Bill Hemmer.

    Comment by Andrew — September 9, 2005 @ 7:17 pm - September 9, 2005

  41. Jackass, if you’re going to pretend to be me, at least spell my name correctly. But if you continue to tempt fate, you do so at your own peril.

    Comment by glisteny — September 10, 2005 @ 5:08 am - September 10, 2005

  42. Hey baby, I was looking for you. I likes the late night boys. Why not drop mependalous a private note? Try aol.

    Comment by mependalous — September 10, 2005 @ 8:25 am - September 10, 2005

  43. Hey mependalous,

    I stayed up late, just for you.

    Forget glisteny…..she bares her teeth and that hurts. I know what makes a black man tick…glisteny can watch and learn, however.

    May I call you “Calgon”?
    Take me away!

    Monty

    Comment by monty — September 10, 2005 @ 11:50 pm - September 10, 2005

  44. PLEASE DO!!
    (wanted to say it before someone beats me to it!!) :)

    Comment by monty — September 11, 2005 @ 12:06 am - September 11, 2005

  45. #43 and #44

    LOL! Why is Reader having a conversation with herself using two of her on-screen personalities? How delusional can she get? So now we know that Reader is also mependalous and Monty. Do us a favor and post a full list of all the screen names you’ve been using lately, m’kay?

    Comment by verity — September 11, 2005 @ 6:02 pm - September 11, 2005

  46. Hey glisteny (verity),

    Yep. We can smell you a mile away. You can change underwear but your ass still reeks.

    BTW….Reader is too verbose and makes little sense. I’d rather be Chandler.

    Monty

    Comment by monty — September 12, 2005 @ 11:19 am - September 12, 2005

  47. Jason Carroll is fierce

    Comment by hunk hunt — September 17, 2005 @ 5:46 pm - September 17, 2005

  48. Oh, Thomas Roberts for sure. The man is perfect.
