Diane Sawyer Offended For Dismissal From Jury Duty

TV anchor Diane Sawyer was left redfaced when she was dismissed from jury duty recently after the court decided she couldn't tell the truth. The Good Morning America hostess has been in journalism for over 35 years - but a judge was less than impressed with her occupation.

She says, "The judge said to me, 'Can you tell the truth and be fair?' And I said, 'That's what journalists do.' And everybody in the courtroom laughed. It was the most hurtful moment I think I've ever had."

She's more a TV host than a journalist. I bet she spends more time doing makeup than she does analyzing stories.
