Columnist Dave Barry reported in his column, Sunday, 6/27/99, that in the
Czeck Republic they have nude TV weather forecasts. This is not a joke.

It seems the TV station wanted to boost its ratings, so it hired two models,
a man and a woman, who open the show in the buff. As the weather reporter
forecasts the daily weather report, the model dresses in clothes that are
appropriate to the weather conditions that day.

Dave Barry had lots of fun with this column, but wondered if this could
happen in the good ole USA. He suggested that all news broadcasts be
conducted in the buff for total honesty and complete disclosure.

You can read the column on the Miami Herald website.
