“Anchorman 2” has been doing tons of awesome things for promotion, from Ron Burgundy co-anchoring an actual local newscast, his ESPN anchoring stint, and those awesome Chevrolet commercials. Now, Yahoo Screen has released an exclusive clip from the film.
In the scene, Burgundy–played by Will Ferrell–is contemplating leaving his San Diego post and become one of the anchors of a state-of-the-art 24-hour news station in New York City. Seeing how 24-hour news stations were very new at in the early ’80s, it’s a risky move. Take a look at the clip by clicking here.
“Anchorman 2,” directed by Adam McKay and focuses on Burgundy and his crew’s foray into the untested waters of the 24-hour news cycle. Here’s more about “Anchorman 2”:
