Carmen Harlan before her days with WDIV Detroit TV...

[canuck]

WWWW: World Wide Web Wadio. Sounds like something Elmer Fudd would broadcast from.

I don't recall Harlan spinning records on W4. She was the news person, which meant she mainly read news and did little reporting, a la Trudy Daniels on todays's WRIF. Harlan came across as very straight. In the decades since then, she has clearly establsihed herself as an accomplished communicator, but she still almost never covers a story herself or even does much off-the-cuff speaking. To be charitable, her strength is reading from a script and looking into the camera. You won't see her subbing for Devin Scillian on his Sunday show.
