  When I came into work today, and read my scripts, I was sad to learn that a young Phoenix police officer had died.   Yesterday morning, we told you about Officer Barry Scott.   He'd been critically injured...

Since we've (and by "we" I mean Becca and I) started doing traffic... I have to say I really feel for our morning commuters.  Traffic is a foreign concept to us.  Rather, *sitting* in traffic is foreign.  It...

Today on Daybreak, Tony Arranaga was out at the Healing Field at Tempe Beach Park.  This, of course, being the 7th year since the 9-11 terrorist attacks.  If you haven't been to the Healing Field - this...

  I hate text messaging -- there I got it off my chest.   Really, is there a more impersonal form of communication?   Think about all of the verbal and non-verbal cues that are lost -- voice/tone, eye...

  Did you happen to watch our 7:22 Good Morning America cut-in Wednesday morning?   If so, you saw some incredible, live footage from Air 15 -- of flood waters sweeping away a car in Apache Junction.  ...

    In the news world, yesterday's storm is quickly becoming recent history.  We also enjoy oxymoron's in the news world.  Either way, I know it happened Monday afternoon... but the aftermath of what...
