CNN weekend anchor T. J. Holmes, who made his first career stop as a reporter at KSNF, was honored by the Arkansas Alumni Association in Fayetteville Friday:
Holmes, a native of West Memphis, received a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism in 1999 and now works as a news anchor for CNN in Atlanta. Before joining CNN in September 2006, his career took him to KSNF-TV in Joplin, Mo., KTHV-TV in Little Rock and NBC11 in San Francisco, the fifth market in the country. When Saddam Hussein was executed, T.J. Holmes brought the news into living rooms across the world, the same day that CNN also covered the memorial services of President Gerald Ford and James Brown. Sitting in the anchor chair for eight straight hours, Holmes took the lead as information came in fast and furious with no scripts. He describes it as the biggest and best day of his career.

He excels at being the weakest member of CNN's anchor staff. Innapropriate emotions, poor adlibbing, and obnoxious reading. Another reason why EEO is bad.
