Rumors and furore abound among Los Angeles viewers of the 117th tournament of the Rose Parade. Veteran co-presenter Stephanie Edwards's seat in the broadcast booth was filled by a Canadian with a politically correct surname, Michaela Pereira, while Stephanie was relegated to "reporting" from the sidelines in the pouring rain. Was this a mutually agreed-to arrangement? Or was Stephanie dumped for a younger Canadian?!
Local talk radio callers have expressed concern that Stephanie was unceremoniously dumped for a younger and more politically correct alternative. If this is true, it would be a sad commentary on the state of affairs of the already dismal Los Angeles media.
