The chronicles of CNN's boot camp known as The VJ Program. We Peon Warriors began meeting here to share humiliating and humorous stories about early encounters with CNN anchors, directors, producers and brutal cafeteria employees. We divulged what it was like to be broke, foolish and referred to not by name but by function. And while we've moved on in life...the inner Peon still remains.

LARRY KING SUSPENDERS TRIBUTE
So-
I read Sunday's New York Post item about CNN president Jim Walton's request that all CNNers wear suspenders to work today, in honor of Larry King's 50th year in broadcasting.
(I also read the anonymous quip someone made in response: "I'm gonna wear suspenders. I'm also going to eat blueberries and fart in public all day.")
Well, as I no longer work at CNN, I am asking any spies there to let me know if anyone followed this mandate. Let me know if any fine employees felt such a kinship with Larry, or a desire to follow orders from Jim Walton that they turned up in suspenders, ready to crank out the news...

So far the suspenders are in short supply. Maybe its just my department. But I did smell a fart. Maybe farts, not suspenders are the true tribute.
