The Daily Examiner out of Philadelphia has been reporting that there are several local news reporters who have recently been making themselves available as potential matches for online dating sites. A weather guy and a sports anchor have both placed Match.com profiles up to try to find someone they're interested in getting serious with.

The first report was about weather anchor Hurricane Schwartz. The second is sports anchor Carl Cherkin.

The two men are into very different things but what they have in common is that not much turns them off. (However, body piercing doesn't work for Schwartz so you'll ahve to turn to Cherkin's profile if you've got holes in your skin.)

It must be a little odd to have a profile up when you yourself are a person with something of a high profile in town. Still, famous people from the local news guy to the Hollywood celebrities are seeking romance so it's no surprise to see them turning up on these sites.

Question of the Day: Would you be interested in dating someone who was locally well-known?
