Cohn merits appointment viewing for 5,000th

She’s always made her mark by being a sports expert and journalist (even a fan) more than a calendar girl, but Linda Cohn should merit appointment viewing -- mark your calendars -- on Feb. 21.

At 8 a.m. that Sunday, Cohn will host her 5,000th “SportsCenter.” She has hosted more episodes of ESPN’s flagship news program than any other anchor, male or female. In the buildup to the show, ESPN has created a Twitter hashtag (#LCo5KSC).

Cohn, who does her job well and consistently serves viewers, deserves the attention she’ll get in the next week or so. She has proven her versatility through the years on everything from studio shows to live events and radio broadcasts.

Amidst the growing mass of egotistical or ill-informed TV types, it’s good to know trustable talents like Cohn remain.
