Miss America Wants Anchor Job
Freshly minted Miss America Katie Stam wants a career in broadcasting, she mentioned at the Washington Press Club Foundtation Congressional Dinner last night. She’d consider something in Washington, but–attention WISH, WTHR, and the rest of the stations in the #25 DMA–really wants to go back to her native Indianapolis.
Stam, formerly Miss Indiana, tells the DC Examiner she’s got a taste for politics:
She said she became interested in broadcasting when she narrated her Christmas play from the pulpit. We may even see her in D.C. Although her first desire would be to work near home in Indianapolis, she said “being around politics definitely intrigues me” and that she’s “keeping all my options open.”

Well Michael, she needs to get in line with the rest of us who are trying to get into this business and follow protocol like anyone else. I could care less if she\’s Miss Universe, if she doesn\’t have the drive or the credentials to do the job, she shouldn\’t be given the opportunity based on just her looks and crown.
