Are female news anchors allowed to show cleavage on air?

For example, Fox5 morning news here in NYC has this anchor, Lucy Noland, and like 3 or 4 out of 5 days of the week, she shows a moderate amount of cleavage. How did I notice this? Cause I'm a guy lol

Anyway, I thought news stations were to have a certain degree of a "dress code" or something like that, but maybe Fox5 is a little too "liberal".

    If news programing has sunk to the point where anchors are hired by their cup size, we're at an all time low. Isn't there anywhere a woman can be respectable?

    Why are females allowed to show cleavage? Because they have it and it looks nice. Isn't that equivalent to males wearing their pants low enough in the front that their pubic hair is visible? No it isn't.

    On Univision they do. oh but Fox, that's the network that spawned Married With Children, The Simpsons and Celebrity Boxing. Consider the source.

    Ah Lucy....NYC stole her from the "D" . She is a hotty, well we had her when she was younger. lol

    There was this thing called the NAked NEWs where legit anchor gave a legit news cast in the nude. I think it was PPV thing that went under.

    Just like any workplace... each has their own code and policy on dress code.

    Have you ever seen "naked news"? I kid you not, it's a real news show. R rated of course.
