Stern Gives Lane His Seal Of Approval

Alycia Lane is now a free woman, and she looks better on her left side than she does straight on. But still, she’s a free woman, as Dan Gross and Michael Klein report in articles full of juicy backstory and descriptions like “demure in a black Moschino suit and matching Louboutin stilettos” (that’s Klein, on Lane).

But by far the best report comes from Mighty Dan Gross, who chats it up with Howard Stern to get the King of All Media’s report on Alycia Lane.

“She’s hot…she has nice big titties… and is the best piece of ass Booker’s ever had,” Stern said of the former CBS3 anchor.. Lange chimed in that he had only met Lane for 10 seconds, but he had enough of a lasting impression that he was able to, we’re paraphrasing here, fantasize about her while masturbating.

Thanks, Dan! I was wondering if Howard Stern thought Alycia Lane had big tits and if Artie Lange jerked off while thinking about her!

Oh, and Alycia Lane wants to go work for another station in Philly. Sounds good to me!

TV News Not Bastion Of Journalism

Dan Gross — are we all calling him “The Mighty” now? — has an interesting story about NBC 10’s Monique Braxton’s recent suspension:

Braxton, sources say, had been suspended for making calls and inquiries about the criminal case of Steve DiDonato, of Lower Salford Township, who happens to be the husband of NBC 10 Managing Editor Lisa Spinosa.

Last month a judge sentenced DiDonato, 47, to a probation-like program over charges that DiDonato set a fire in January 2006, outside a Lehigh Valley bar. The fire was set to distract police from the fact that he was about to get in his car and drive under the influence, Debbie Garlicki of the Allentown Morning Call reported. DiDonato was not arrested until seven months after the blaze, which he allegedly drove through.

But The Mighty Dan Gross also reports Braxton was paid during her suspension, and didn’t have to do any reporting. Which means it sounds more like a “vacation” to me.
