[PRODUCER'S PERSPECTIVE: putting together Tuesday morning's lead SKINNY story]

 There were a couple stories worth leading the SKINNY this morning (we missed out on the 'Bombshell' McGee apology to Sandra Bullock)... but the challenge is when you look online for ideas the night before, there may be too few facts or supporting media (interviews, pictures, video, etc.).

 In this case, TMZ was leading with the Steven Seagal sex allegation that one of his young employees was being treated as a "sex toy."

There were legal documents in PDF format which I used along with Seagal's headshot to illustrate the story... but what was lacking were video elements.

Since this story was still developing (and continues to be on TMZ's homepage: LINK), I opted to use a 2009 "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" interview with the actor. Not the best option, but it worked.

Here's the final product... [click play]
