Anchor trashes Rachael Ray, panic ensues Not that I'd expect the strictest adherence to journalistic standards from Fox's Good Day New York, but it's still sad to watch an anchor backpedal after unknowingly ripping a sponsor's ad. To be fair, the guy was actually ripping the ubiquitous Rachael Ray more than Dunkin’ Donuts. But then his co-host warns him, “Dunkin’ Donuts is one of our sponsors.” What follows is an awkward and entrancing bit of live television. Watch the video over on Gawker. —Posted by David Griner

Panic? I expected a little more from the clip.

Wow, journalists are that afraid of Dunkin' Donuts! No wonder we never see negative stories about Big Oil.

Don Pardo is 90 years old. Too bad he still doesn't do the voice over which claimed sponsorship of wardrobes of Hugh Downs when we watched concentration or even better any Chuck Barris production of the 70s.

That is completely and utterly hysterical. Stupid anchorman!

Boy, people must really hate Ray to invent crap like the dunkin' donuts garbage.
