Denny Anderson faces health issues
Wednesday, April 09, 2008 By Aaron Brown
Dennis Anderson is the Walter Cronkite of northern Minnesota. The Duluth News-Tribune reports today that Anderson, evening anchor of the top-rated Duluth newscast at WDIO/WIRT, is fighting prostate cancer. The prognosis is good, according to the report. Still, thoughts and prayers go out to the dean of Northland media.
For those outside northern Minnesota, Anderson is the only mustachioed anchor in a mid-sized or larger market and certainly the only mustachioed anchor to dominate all competitors in the Nielsons. We dig mustaches. That's how we roll around here.

That figures. I write a humorous story about him in the Reader Weekly's April Fools edition, and a week later he announces he has cancer. Touche, Denny. You have buried me under a pile of shame.

Ha!
You're lucky I couldn't find a link to the April Fool's story or I was going to say something about how you are, for the time being, the most hated person in Duluth (again). Now, do you think Denny timed the announcement as a way to crush your limited credibility? Or was that just a bonus.
I kid, I kid. You've got enough problems. :-)
