These names actually made it on the air.Kirksville, Missourah. This backwoods town is located in the northeast part of the Show-Me (boobs!) State. Yet the town has enough people to warrant the 200th largest TV market in the country...out of 212.
I have worked in these so-called "small TV markets," producing ma-n-pa like news and talk programs. So, not so surprisingly, I found a YouTube video with a morning news program from KTVO listing really naughty names for birthdays and anniversaries around the town. And the kicker to this is that the anchors sound all so oblivious to those names while reading them.
I don't know who put those up there: prank e-mailers with an inept producer irresponsibly placing them on TV; or a producer who was so tired of working at KTVO, he/she wanted a little spice in the morning before he/she saw the door. I would have loved it if it was the latter but the former seems more likely. Anyways, here's how it looked like on-air [Thanks, YesButNoButYes]:
I swear, who in the hell still names their kid Craven...who happens to have the last name Moorehead?
