We don’t know. But she sure doesn’t want you to think she was.
According to a source at WISN, Caroline Lyders’ anchoring career might be finished because rumors are circulating like wildfire. As you might know, Lyders is being accused of taking over the identity of an Unidentified Blonde seen on a Maui beach with “American Idol”, Taylor Hicks (allegedly her absurd attempt at getting “famous fast.”) All that education for nothing.. In journalism, credibility is everything. If you don’t have it, you don’t work.
In the latest article from JSonline, Tim Cuprisin gives her a nice spin. It’s obvious they all feel a little sorry for Lyders. Tim so gently writes: “With Internet rumors floating around about her fate…” Even he can no longer dismiss the “rumors”, because the entire staff at WISN staff and Hearst Argyle must now know that Caroline Lyders was not on the beach with Taylor Hicks and that this was a big huge scam.
Another funny line in the article is, “Lyders says her decision to leave Channel 12 isn’t connected to her [scamming & fake] relationship with “American Idol” winner Taylor Hicks, something she’s not interested in talking about.” Now that’s a real surprise! Lyders doesn’t want to talk about it? She only rode that poor mans coattails for months and months and now doesn’t want to talk about her scam? I wonder why now? lol She says, “You know what? It doesn’t have anything to do with it,” she says. “I made the decision based on what’s right for me.” She sure is eager to make it clear she was not fired for playing Hicks’ fake girlfriend. Boring..
We also heard that Lori Waldon and Jan Wade might be covering for her only because it is true that Caroline didn’t renew her contract (so they are not technically lying) but now that Waldon and Wade both know she was not on the beach with Taylor Hicks and has been lying, we wonder if renewing her contract is even an option? Especially since the bosses at Hearst Argyle TV are aware of what’s been going on.
We just want to say we are thrilled we don’t have to see this fraud anchor anymore each morning and everyone we know is too!
This Friday is her last day according to sources at WISN. Don’t let the door hit you in the hiney girl.
