A hard-hitting $500,000-a-year broadcast journalist, Kent Brockman is the face of Channel 6. He also personifies everything thats wrong with his profession. Hes judgemental, self-centred and is quite happy to refuse to read the news until he gets his Danish pastry. But despite his diva-esque attitude, hes still one of the most popular faces on Springfield television, hosting Smartline, Eye On Springfield, Bite Back! With Kent Brockman, and The Springfield Squares. Meanwhile, fellow news anchor Scott Christian is left with the weekend shift.
