“I'm where I'm supposed to be. In that purple chair, by myself, yip yap...” — Wendy Williams Quote

I'm where I'm supposed to be. In that purple chair, by myself, yip yapping. I am. I didn't fall into it, you know. I wanted to be a newscaster or a radio broadcaster since I was six years old. When I went to college, I majored in communications. When I touched a microphone, I fell in love.

Take some elocution lessons; you can joke with Ebonics, but the truth is, nothing beats the King's English. Learning how to speak properly, and the art of delivery can take you very far in life!

I would always sneak in the refrigerator and eat seconds, and underneath my bed - you know, I had my own bedroom - it was littered with Twinkie wrappers and Jolly Rancher wrappers. And I would sneak-eat, because I was denied food, not because I was hungry, but because my mom and dad did the best they could in 1970 and '71 and '72.

If you pay close attention, you'll notice we continually hear about basically the same 150 celebrities.

That test should not be about ratings. What should weigh is the knowledge that a public broadcaster delivers programmes that matter.

If you think about it, I've never held a job in my life. I went from being an NFL player to a coach to a broadcaster. I haven't worked a day in my life.

America's international broadcasters are an important part of the face we present to the world.
