Haven't yet had a chance to check out the work of WFAA's new morning-show co-host, New York transplant Ron Corning, but several Friends of Unfair Park direct our attention to this clip in which he makes a cameo, courtesy Alexa Conomos's Mayfest gaffe. Turns out, Corning tweeted the clip this morning, insisting it's "one of the funniest moments I can remember during my morning TV career!"
