We&#8217;re going to be throwing a lot of innovation at them, and they&#8217;re not going to handle it well. It&#8217;s right when all the news started changing with the 24-hours news cycle in &#8217;78 or &#8217;79. All of a sudden, local news stations diversified and had Latino anchors and African-American anchors, and any time you&#8217;re talking about diversity and the Action News team, that&#8217;s always fun to deal with.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It certainly sounds as if they are heading in the right direction, and have a good handle on what really drove the comedy of the first film. McKay went on to state that he and <strong>Anchorman<\/strong> star and co-writer Will Farrell will be working on the script over the next three months and that they are already planning on having another epic gang fight between San Diego&#8217;s rival news teams.
