‘Colbert’ in Bikinis

Tonight, a segment of “The Colbert Report” is scheduled to be taped at 7 at Bikinis Bar & Grill, 6901 N. Interstate 35.

The tantalizing subject is “Guys Night Out” for a “Stay-At-Home Dads” theme.

“I’m a big fan of the show,” says Doug Guller, owner of Bikinis, who approves of the political satire on “Colbert.” “Our new concept here is a fun and casual. We don’t take our selves too seriously.”

Good thing. The Comedy Central show can puncture anyone’s self-importance.

Makes our head spin

If anyone out there is keeping track of the personnel changes at Austin TV stations, good luck.

The latest arrival: Lori Ana Hernandez was drafted by Fox 7’s news gang as co-anchor of “FOX 7 NewsEdge at 5” and “FOX 7 NewsEdge at 9.” She makes her entrance on Jan. 8.

Hernandez recently left KXAS NBC 5 in Dallas, where she anchored that station’s weekend morning news program. She also served as a reporter and anchor for KSEE NBC 24 in Fresno, Cal., CNN Headline News and CNN Airport Network.

At the on-air desk, Hernandez joins co-anchor Mike Warren, meteorologist Scott Fisher and sports director Dave Cody.
