Eyes Wide Shut On New Mexico

If you've ever stayed tuned to KOBTV after Meet the Press, then no doubt you've caught that station's version of a news roundtable called "Eye on New Mexico."

Co-hosted by Monica Armenta Nicole Brady and the dependably disheveled Dennis Domrzalski, the show may be more appropriately called "Dennis just got out of bed New Mexico," or "hey I saw these headlines in the news but I didn't really read the articles nor really know what's going on, New Mexico."

Seriously, "Eye on New Mexico" doesn't seem to be get many eyes in the way of viewers as evidenced by their relatively uninterrupted broadcast, which reminds you just how long 30 minutes really is.

Yesterday's show was a particularly good example; The show featured special guest, PRC Commissioner Jason Marks, one of the most straight forward and upright advocates for the public's interest in New Mexico. Disheveled Dennis and Morning Monica seemed at a complete loss as to what to questions they had for Marks.

Dennis meandered his way into questions using broad swipes like "so the PRC has gotten a lot of negative publicity lately. Eric Serna, Con Alma, and now did you fire this other guy, or what?"

The same with the issue of Qwest, which was why I actually listened to the entirety of the program. But considering the importance of the story, the issue got little time.

If it weren't for Marks, the show would have been literally 3 or 4 poorly constructed questions.

There's no shortage of important issues to discuss in New Mexico unless you have your eyes wide shut.

Correction. It wasn't Morning Monica, it was Nicole Brady. Secondly, I thought that Marks did a great job answering the softball questions, but he does need to stop looking into the camera and be a little more at ease. Dennis isn't Larry Barker, nose aint big enough to be Larry Barker.

Idiot. You can't even get the name of the cohost right. Shows you how much we can trust your dumb blog and your worthless opinions. Get it right or stop writing.
