The Channel 5 anchor finally went too far tonight with his dedication to his job (which in the past has included working both morning and evening shifts and coming in on weekends): He gamely tried doing the news with a bad sore throat (which made him sound like he'd been huffing helium), but around 5:40, Heather Unruh stuck a mug and a bottle of honey in front of him and announced he had to go home immediately - and that they'd brought in Liz Bruner to fill in.
