BBC Weatherman Shocks Bosses


ATTITUDE MAG WITH WEATHERMAN INSET X390 (FAIR USE) |ADVOCATE.COM

A BBC weatherman is said to be in “minor hot water” for posing for the U.K. gay magazine Attitude without telling his bosses at the network, the Daily Mail reports. 

Tomasz Schafernaker, 31, is featured on the cover of Attitude Active, a fitness-focused supplement to the regular magazine. 

The Daily Mail reports that the magazine cover shocked Schafernaker’s colleagues, who weren’t aware of his impressive physique because he's ordinarily wearing a suit. One weather center insider reported: “Eyebrows were raised big time. You have to look to see that it is him. The boy was transformed into a swan.

“Let’s just say that everyone is seeing Tomasz in a different light now. But we are worried that when people are watching the weather when Tomasz presents they will not be able to concentrate on watching the symbols.”

    I do not see anything wrong with this meterologist posing for a magazine. He is not naked. The BBC needs to get a life and the staff as well. The thing the BBC is not thinking of 1. He is a good looking guy. 2. There ratings are going to sky rocket because the gay community is going to go gaga over him. It will not distract peoples attention span on the forcasting of the weather. I wish I look as good as him. Keep up the great work. Don't let the network sway you down.

    John in SF, that's easy: bimbos are acceptable, himbos are not. I'm not implying that he's a himbo but you get my meaning; straight society doesn't like to sexualize men, even good-looking men. It's just not acceptable.

    The BBC weather presenters, unlike the majority of the UK commercial channel weather presenters, are fully qualified meteorologists and can and create their own forecasts with the aid of weather technology obviously, but they do far, far more than read off of an autocue and look pretty. Schaff, like some of his colleagues happens to be nice eye candy as a bonus,

    oh plz, there are countless female bimbos that do nothing but stand around and point all over the world at video screens that they barely understand. What is different is that it is now a man that is hot, and he might have a brain. Not sure yet, could probably go either way

    Watching the weather just this morning my hubbie said how much he'd like this hunk to do it with his shirt off. Well, we can now paste the Attitude cover over the screen.
