Absolutely no notability and very little content. Infobox itself is nearly all red links as well Travellingcari (talk) 02:30, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Anchor for a multi-station news broadcast, and apparently an Emmy winner. I couldn't confirm the Emmy win at http://www.emmys.tv/, however. Perhaps the article should be marked as a stub. --Eastmain (talk) 02:59, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Numerous hits on Google News for this individual. See http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Morris+Jones%22+anchor&btnG=Search+Archives (Mind meal (talk) 04:49, 4 February 2008 (UTC))
 * Delete: We are not Google News!  The fact that there are hits for a TV personality is about as shocking as a mountain made of rock.  The question is always whether the person is "of note" (causing notice) in a field.  A local TV reporter will have gobs of Google hits and be entirely unknown outside of a local market.  In addition, this "article" has no biography in it at all.  Wikipedia is not Monster.com and does not host resumes.  What has this person done?  What made this person worth noticing among TV guys?  What ways has this person set the standard?  Random J. TV-guy.  Utgard Loki (talk) 17:34, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, the Google news search does seem to demonstrate substantial coverage, beyond what would be expected of a run-of-the-mill local TV reporter. I've deleted the Emmy reference, however, as I could not verify the claim either. Jfire (talk) 01:32, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
