Former Erie Anchor Takes On Erectile Dysfunction. (E.D.)


(I bet that title got your attention.) Scott Baker, former anchor on WSEE and most recently WTAE Channel 4 Pittsburgh, appeared on a CNBC segment of “DLife.” Dlife is the weekly program on CNBC Sunday's at 6pm about diabetes and controlling the disease.

This week's episode was about how E.D. for men and vaginal pain in women can be caused by diabetes. Scott was on a panel with his lovely wife. From the way the conversation was edited, I am not sure who was the diabetic. They talked about how diabetes and its complications have to be dealt with by both partners in a marriage or relationship.

Scott, as always, was very frank. I have to give him and his wife a great deal of credit to go on television and discuss their personal life. He is so well known to viewers here and in the Pittsburgh area.

Scott left his WTAE anchor chair very abruptly in June, and the last I heard, he is still looking to stay in Western Pennsylvania. After he left the station, Scott made a video which he posted on YouTube as a farewell to his Pittsburgh viewers. In the video, he does not blame WTAE or discuss the reasons for his leaving.

Scott was a great reporter both in Erie and in Pittsburgh. We wish him and his family the very best. (Wouldn’t it be wonderful if he went full circle?)

"Congress passed a law on February 1, 2006, setting a final deadline for the DTV transition of February 17, 2009. Most television stations will continue broadcasting both analog and digital programming until February 17, 2009, when all analog broadcasting will stop.” FCC www.dtv.gov

Just 15 Days To Go Before WSEE DT Channel 16 Construction Permit Expires.

When Scott was on WTAE he frequently talked about his wife on-air. I believe she is a former Miss America who is also a diabetic.

Scott gave the impression that they have a very healthy sex life. Whatever happened to a little decorum on the air?

I hope he doesn't try and come back to Erie. Scott can be most unctuous when he wants to be.

Pompous windbag!
