Sue Simmons Proves She Just Another New Yorker

May 13, 2008 – 2:15 pm by Jeff

Those of you not from the New York area might not know who Sue Simmons is. She has been the co-anchor of NBC’s Evening News for almost 30 years now (since 1980). Growing up just outside of New York, she was a staple in my house. Not because I watched the news as a kid (the NY news would undoubtedly leave any kid emotionally scarred). I knew her because she always had the last 5 seconds of commercials during reruns of the Brady Bunch, Gilligan’s Island, Diff’rent Strokes, or whatever else happened to be in syndication at the time. As a kid, I always wondered how come the New York news anchors never sounded like they were from New York.

FINALLY! After twenty years, my question has finally been answered. Thank you Sue!
