Exempt from most guidelines is the big guy, commentator Jim DeFede. In DeFede's case, Doerr says, clothes do not make the man. DeFede's ''mere presence is more powerful'' than his wardrobe.
So, DeFede gets to skip the tie in favor of guayaberas and camp shirts. He can also wear jeans. ''The big thing they don't want me to do is, no more T-shirts under jackets,'' DeFede says. ``Apparently, I'm just too sexy.''
The station's image consultant also recommended DeFede use a bit of bronzer. Says DeFede: ``I'm still testing them out -- privately.''
