Is it wrong to think that Hala Gorani, Middle East Winter Correspondent, makes for a fine visual? Yes, I realize that's her Davos wardrobe, but come on.
And I'm sure we all caught the last few seconds of IME, when someone hit Hala with a snowball. Twice. The first time, when she turned to the innocent bystanders behind her demanding who did it, was a thing of hilarity, because, really, who'd 'fess up to that? I mean, seriously. And we all saw that it came from the 7 o'clock angle, which means it came from the side of the camera. Interesting, I think, for someone to risk that. After all, back in the days of Design 360, Hala has allowed birds to interrupt her, but shown amusement and/or annoyance when people pass in front of her. To toss a snowball at her is just asking for trouble.
Which brings us to the second snowball. That was just... Her expression? And the way she was holding on to the snowball in her hand, you know the person had it coming. (The background music also gives a lovely sense of foreboding.) Although Hala looks like she has bad aim, snowball-wise. Even if she did sink that b-ball shot a few editions back.
I also love that the shortcut to the IME blog is cnn.com/hala. I did not know that, and it is very cool.
and if anyone gives me flak for the entry title, you need to learn irony, humor, and find another blog to read.

The second snowball came from the right didn't it? So it must have been Republican. :)
And I agree: Hala's snowballing skilz are severely lacking.
Haha, her snowballing skills are severely lacking :P.
Hi, I am Hala fan too. Nice to meet you.
Hi Hala fans. In the same IME episode, seen her riding a board? lovely ..
A couple of days ago, when talking about the swan who fell in love with a plastic swan, she added "toys never leave you". She is a sweethearts! :)
Is there any way to access this snowball incident? (Visually I mean).
Good Job! :)
