Reporter's Teeth

Do you think all on air personnel at local news stations have their teeth worked on? If so, does the station pay for it or what? I've always been curious.

No one has natural teeth that white.

When I worked in the business, it was surprising to learn how much clothing and other "work related" expenses were write downs for tax purposes. So it wouldn't surprise me that while the stations have long ago done away with clothing allowances (and cosmetic repairs), they are probably dealt with at tax time.

I would absolutely believe it. Your appearance has to be top notch at all times, and I don't think any news organization would let meth mouth read the news lol
