V&W: Mud Wrestling Or Arm Wrestling

By Brian 



Elizabeth Vargas and Bob Woodruff “say they’ll have no problem deciding which anchor hits the road and which one stays in the studio,” Ed Bark writes:

“When a big story breaks, ‘whoever is closer to the chair in New York will jump in that and do the special report,’ Mr. Woodruff said. ‘And the other one would go to the airport. … When it’s a planned event, it’s sort of a rotation, I would imagine. We each have different specialties or interests in various subjects.’

Ms. Vargas acknowledged that she ‘would have loved to have covered the Palestinian elections, but Bob won that one – a coin toss.’

Literally? A little anchor banter ensued.

Bob: ‘No, she’s being metaphorical. … It was a mud wrestling match.’

Elizabeth: ‘No, arm wrestling, Bob.’

Bob: ‘Right. That’s our public position.'”
