Another news "innovation,"
Canada's Naked News
Yahoo News announced a new video project designed to leave people tapping their feet as they take in current events. Named "Odd News Underground," the show will feature a journalist-cum-crooner who will sing the news, reports AdWeek.
The singing anchor is the first venture from Yahoo News since the last year's launch of The Hot Zone With Kevin Sites, which chronicles the correspondent's travels to war-torn areas around the globe.
Yahoo declined to identify the warbler/wag, but sources said the performer is not an unknown and has experience as a reporter and musician. The venture is expected to be on the lighter side, so ditties about Iraq aren't to be expected.
