I would find it much easier to think Ms. Davis deserved another chance if she'd actually taken any public responsibility for the ramifications of her behavior. Driving drunk is bad enough, but actually hitting other cars?! Addiction may be a sickness, but Ms. Davis allowed the consequences of her condition to damage other people's property, AND put innocent lives in danger of injury or death.
Unfortunately, absolutely NOTHING Ms. Davis has said publicly, either when WAGA gave her its soft-pedal sendoff, or when WGCL began giving her a platform to excuse herself, has addressed this fact. Through all three parts of her self-indulgent, self-pitying segments, she spoke only of HER "illness," HER "journey," and (when all else fails, claim God is on your side) the alleged "faith" she had in her alleged recovery. Never once did she offer so much as a single word of public apology to the victims of her habitually irresponsible conduct - and make no mistake, the people she hit were HER VICTIMS - or an acknowledgement of the damage she caused, and the risk she posed to others.
This is neither the appropriate behavior, nor the required mindset, of a person the public is supposed to be able trust as a source of reliable and objective information.
Luckily for Ms. Davis, a public attention span measurable in nanoseconds, an ever-shifting population of newcomers who don't know the history of our local "characters," and a desperate, consistently bottom-dwelling broadcast outlet that can't keep a news director in the building long enough to warm up his or her own chair, all allowed Ms. Davis a wide enough crack in WGCL's revolving door to regain a spot in front of a camera. Given WGCL's junior-college-grade production values, one can only conclude they must have signed her for a bargain rate.
The quality of WGCL's news operation has long been pitiful, but now, with the dusting off of the blind-spot-riddled Ms. Davis, they have lowered themselves to the level of shame.
