Perhaps prepping for changes under Jeff Zucker at CNN, we hear anchor Erin Burnett’s instituted a dress code on her program, “Erin Burnett OutFront.” Sources say it started because of one staffer’s “strong sense of personal style.” “There’s a guy on the show who mikes guests,” says a source, “and he has a very elaborate fashion sense.”
The spy adds the dude’s choices range from “a cowboy hat and boots” to “Adidas track suits or hip-hop looks.” While he sounds perfect for Page Six, “Erin found the looks off-putting.
She thinks of her show as very smart. So she instituted a dress code.” But the sartorial stir goes on: “There’s a debate about it among the crew.” Burnett’s rep said the show “does not have a dress code. This is silly.”
